In view of the need for additional community mental health services closer to where people live, what additional resources are being made available to expand services in the vicinity of my electorate and the east metropolitan region? Mr DAY
AnswerView source ↗
I thank the member for some notice of this question. One of the many great successes in the Health portfolio since the Government has been in office is the substantial upgrading and expansion of mental health services and facilities throughout Western Australia. That has been possible due to the prudent financial management to which the Premier and the Leader of the House have referred this afternoon. We now spend about $188m a year on providing mental health services. That is in excess of $20m more than was spent three or four years ago. In addition to that recurrent allocation, $47m was allocated for the establishment of new facilities in the mental health area over the past five years. As far as the east metropolitan region is concerned, I was very pleased to be involved in the opening last Friday of the new Morley Adult Mental Health Centre, which has been developed at a cost of $443 000. More significantly, $700 000 a year will be spent on providing mental health services, particularly for people in the Beechboro, Ballajura, Morley and Ellenbrook areas through the services of an adult consultant psychiatrist, community mental health nurses, occupational therapists and social workers. In addition to the opening of the Morley Adult Mental Health Centre, the new in-patient mental health units at the Swan District Hospital and the Armadale-Kelmscott Memorial Hospital will soon be in operation, both of which are 25-bed facilities. They will also be allocated the additional significant amount of $3.2m each on a recurrent basis. Ms MacTiernan: Tell us about Whitby Falls Hostel. Mr DAY: If the member for Armadale wants to know how the Armadale-Kelmscott Memorial Hospital is progressing, I suggest that she take a drive out to her electorate, as she does occasionally, and have a look at the magnificent construction there. The SPEAKER: Order! One of the other conditions to which I referred earlier was that people should not interject across the Chamber on matters that have nothing to do with the question in hand. If the member for Armadale wants that question answered she should come back tomorrow. Ms MacTiernan: It was the question asked. The SPEAKER: Order! I formally call the member for Armadale to order for the first time. Mr DAY: I hope the member for Armadale attends the opening of the new Adult Armadale In-patient Mental Health Centre to which I referred. It will be of great benefit to the residents of her electorate and the surrounding electorates of the south eastern metropolitan area. As I said, due to prudent financial management, which has been discussed here this afternoon, the Government has been able to allocate these substantially increased resources to provide not only mental health services but also health services generally throughout Western Australia.
