Mental health is a term that describes how all people think, feel and act. It is a basic component of health and wellbeing that underpins our individual and collective abilities to make decisions, build relationships and shape the world we live in.
SWSPHN aimed to better understand how people living in South Western Sydney access and engage with mental health services, the support people may need in accessing those services, and how we can improve services and coordination to best meet the needs of our community. These Local Health Forums were part of a bigger deep dive into mental health and suicide prevention being undertaken by South Western Sydney PHN.
