Care Coordination
Care coordination is the process of helping a person experiencing mental illness to access services which will promote recovery.
This includes collaboration between the individual, their family, support people and health professionals.
Evidence shows that care coordination improves the experience for people accessing mental health services, promotes recovery from illness, improves quality of life and delivers better health outcomes.
All people accessing mental health services within East Metropolitan Health Service will have access to a care coordinator to support care during their recovery journey.
