PUBLIC HOSPITALS — DISCHARGE POLICY
I refer to the discharge policy that applies to all public hospitals and states that all phases of patient care should be planned and managed by those involved in providing the care, with active input from the patient and/or the patient’s family. (1) What discharge planning was undertaken before Eddy Dayeh was discharged from Graylands Hospital on 1 April 2011 after an extended involuntary admission? (2) Was the hospital aware that Mr Dayeh had been evicted from his Department of Housing unit while he was in Graylands and had no home to return to? (3) How did this happen, given that proper discharge planning was to have taken place? Hon HELEN MORTON

AnswerView source ↗
I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question. (1)–(3) I have had a number of briefings on this matter over the last few days, and I am still seeking additional information. I can indicate from the briefings I have had so far that the member’s information is not correct. Mr Dayeh was not evicted from his home whilst a hospital patient. I do not want to talk about any other matters in his particular case, because to do so would breach confidentiality around Mr Dayeh’s situation and ongoing treatment. I have not been advised by Mr Dayeh that he would be happy for me do that in a public way. Hon Ljiljanna Ravlich : I am sure he is interested in the answers. Hon HELEN MORTON : I am offering Hon Ljiljanna Ravlich a private briefing on all the information that I have, if she wishes. However, I will make some general comments. Generally, I can say that people with a mental illness have a responsibility to behave and respect property, unless their illness precludes them from doing so. If a patient is discharged from hospital to live in the community, with or without medication or other treatments that might be ongoing, one would expect that that person has the ability to know right from wrong in regard to property. Discharge planning should include more than just potential medication for a person, or community treatment orders if it is an involuntary level of treatment support. It should include all the services that are required in the community—that is, the sort of wraparound services that people need to help them to be successful in the community, especially after a reasonable stay in hospital. Several members interjected. The PRESIDENT : Order! Let the minister finish. Hon HELEN MORTON : Accommodation is more than just having a house; it is the range of support services that people need to enable them to retain their living arrangements. Some of the issues around that include things like daily support or head lease arrangements with an organisation that protects people from the kinds of concerns that are being expressed. I understand that the gentleman is now in a private rental. There is a range of issues on which I am still seeking information in respect of the sort of personalised care that this man is receiving in that arrangement. I can reassure the member that some of the information she indicates is not correct — Hon Ljiljanna Ravlich interjected. The PRESIDENT : Order! Let the minister finish her remarks. Hon HELEN MORTON : I will just finish by saying that in every one of her outbursts so far, the member has been incorrect.

Hon HELEN MORTON replied: I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question. (1)–(3) I have had a number of briefings on this matter over the last few days, and I am still seeking additional information. I can indicate from the briefings I have had so far that the member’s information is not correct. Mr Dayeh was not evicted from his home whilst a hospital patient. I do not want to talk about any other matters in his particular case, because to do so would breach confidentiality around Mr Dayeh’s situation and ongoing treatment. I have not been advised by Mr Dayeh that he would be happy for me do that in a public way. Hon Ljiljanna Ravlich : I am sure he is interested in the answers. Hon HELEN MORTON : I am offering Hon Ljiljanna Ravlich a private briefing on all the information that I have, if she wishes. However, I will make some general comments. Generally, I can say that people with a mental illness have a responsibility to behave and respect property, unless their illness precludes them from doing so. If a patient is discharged from hospital to live in the community, with or without medication or other treatments that might be ongoing, one would expect that that person has the ability to know right from wrong in regard to property. Discharge planning should include more than just potential medication for a person, or community treatment orders if it is an involuntary level of treatment support. It should include all the services that are required in the community—that is, the sort of wraparound services that people need to help them to be successful in the community, especially after a reasonable stay in hospital. Several members interjected. The PRESIDENT : Order! Let the minister finish. Hon HELEN MORTON : Accommodation is more than just having a house; it is the range of support services that people need to enable them to retain their living arrangements. Some of the issues around that include things like daily support or head lease arrangements with an organisation that protects people from the kinds of concerns that are being expressed. I understand that the gentleman is now in a private rental. There is a range of issues on which I am still seeking information in respect of the sort of personalised care that this man is receiving in that arrangement. I can reassure the member that some of the information she indicates is not correct — Hon Ljiljanna Ravlich interjected. The PRESIDENT : Order! Let the minister finish her remarks. Hon HELEN MORTON : I will just finish by saying that in every one of her outbursts so far, the member has been incorrect.
