Psychological Therapy Services now available for people living in residential aged care homes.
Our WiseMind program assists residents at Residential Aged Care Homes (RACHs) with mild to moderate symptoms of common mental illness, or who are experiencing early symptoms and are assessed as ‘at risk’ of developing a diagnosable mental illness over the following 12 months.
It offers evidence based, person-centred short-term support. Services are delivered by mental health professionals including psychologists, social workers and mental health nurses.
The WiseMind program, which began in February 2019, provides support to residents at participating RACHs in our region.
Nepean Blue Mountains PHN continues to work with RACHs within the region interested in providing the WiseMind program.
