I thank the member for some notice of the question.
As far as possible, patients are treated in the emergency
department and general hospital beds, and supported in the community by the
community treatment team. In some instances, patients require acute specialist
mental health care and require transport to Perth. From 1 January 2015 to 30 June
2015, a total of 22 patients have been transferred from Geraldton to Perth.
