EMPHN invites tender responses to provide innovative after hours mental health solutions

14 March, 2019

Eastern Melbourne Primary Health Network (EMPHN) invites tender responses to provide innovative after hours mental health solutions, to address service delivery gaps within the community, including vulnerable populations.

Solutions should not focus solely on crisis care, rather accessing after hour care in situations where symptoms can be treated or diffused prior to reach a point of crisis.  

Solutions can also incorporate follow up treatment and care coordination, post after hours care. 

It is expected that solutions will include the development of formal protocols and integrated care pathways with tertiary health, EMPHN mental health and alcohol and other drugs (AOD) commissioned services, GPs and other primary and community health services. A single organisation or consortia of organisations can provide the service.
