External workshop program We deliver a calendar of specialist professional development workshops for external agencies and staff on areas of interest and stemming from our expertise in forensic mental health. The past year has seen the opening of the Ballerrt Yeram-boo-ee Forensic Mental Health Service at the new Ravenhall Correctional Centre; the commencement of operations at the St Paul’s Psychosocial Unit at Port Philip Prison; significant expansion in our community programs; the planning and recruitment of staff for new positions at Thomas Embling Hospital; and the continued building of the 18 additional beds funded by the government. Our staff continue to provide clinical assessment, policy and program advice, consultations with government agencies and departments and participate in a number of emerging program areas focused on the management of high- risk individuals in the community. While we recognize the importance of these collaborations, they do add time and resourcing pressure to our operations. The details of such examples and many

10 more areas of exemplary practice are provided in this Report of Operations. Later in the year we will report in more detail on service outcomes and improvements in our Quality Account. Suffice to say they represent another year of considerable achievement by staff in the face of rapidly increasing demand and complexity.

FORENSICARE Greater accessibility to services

Perhaps the most visible indicator of success in providing better access to care for mentally ill prisoners has been the opening of the Ballerrt Yeram-boo- ee Forensic Mental Health Service at Board chair Ravenhall Correctional Centre. This service provides accommodation and treatment for 75 prisoners who need mental health and CEO report care and a range of outpatient services across the prison. It has significantly improved access to care for men in the prison system. Since it opened we have treated more than 285 prisoners in the This year’s Report of Operations sets out the four units and provided services to more than 300 prisoners through the outpatient ongoing growth for Forensicare. As part of service. We also began operating the St the government’s response to higher levels Paul’s Unit at Port Phillip Prison, which provides rehabilitation-based treatment of demand, Forensicare’s budget has nearly and services in a 30-bed unit, and we have doubled in size in the past five years. treated 34 prisoners. We have worked closely with the Department of Justice and Regulation to monitor access and flow The recruitment of additional staff and the through all prison services. This includes opening of the new beds in the coming the services we provide at the Melbourne months should help address some of these Assessment Prison, where the Acute issues. However, the reality is that, even Assessment Unit has been closed since with 18 additional beds, there will continue December 2017 as Corrections Victoria to be waiting lists for people to be admitted begins construction of a better and safer to the hospital. The increases in the environment for prisoners and staff. number of prison beds in Victoria, has not been matched by a proportional growth Construction has continued at the Thomas in the number of beds for compulsory Embling Hospital on the 18 additional beds treatment of prisoners at Thomas Embling funded by the government and, at the end Hospital. In our Report of Operations last of the reporting period, these are almost year we indicated our intention to keep fully completed. We have been assertively working with government to build on its recruiting for the additional staff required previous funding commitment for planning to open these units, and the additional for a new hospital service, but the funding beds are expected to become operational for this new hospital has not eventuated. in the first half of 2018-19. This increase The board remains critically concerned represents a very welcome gain in our about the ability of our existing services current capacity of 116 beds of 16%, to respond to the mental health needs of however at the same time demand for our the increasing prison population. Despite beds has grown more than threefold. There changes to our clinical processes, too remains great pressure on hospital beds many prisoners, both men and women,

Our access performance has continued In our community service we have to improve when we look at the transfer consolidated the expansion of our of male prisoners who require compulsory Problem Behaviour Program and treatment under the Mental Health Act to increasingly engaged more with Thomas Embling Hospital. We admitted Community Correctional Services to work 65 men for treatment from the prison with people with a mental illness with system, an 8 per cent increase on the complex needs who present a high risk of previous year.

Our clinicians manage complex patients in a complex system

This has been a year of astonishing expansion of beds in the prison directorate, of restructuring and development of the community programs, and of an increase in hospital beds (in progress). Our clinicians are managing an increasingly complex and acute cohort of patients with limited bed capacity to meet demand. I am proud of our staff, who work in a highly challenging field and maintain focus on the core tasks of patient care despite these pressures. Recruiting a skilled workforce to meet growth has been a significant challenge. Opening our new services in the prisons with a full staff complement was a major achievement. We have focused on both 24 international recruitment and retaining local trainees who have placements in our service. Our diverse workforce brings new ideas and dynamism to our services. Our challenge is to maintain a reputation that preferentially attracts staff by focusing on training, professional development and innovation in what we do for patients. Forensicare has close links with the Centre for Forensic Behavioural Science, which FORENSICARE enables ongoing translational research that explores questions of direct relevance to patient care and generating evidence for what we do. Our burgeoning prison directorate has benefited from new procedures to manage Executive Director, patient flow within prisons and to Thomas Embling Hospital. In addition to the new Clinical Services’ Ballerrt Yeram-boo-ee service at Ravenhall Correctional Centre, we began services at St Paul’s Psychosocial Rehabilitation Unit report at Port Phillip Prison. At St Paul’s we aim to meet the needs of many of those found liable to supervision under the Crimes (Mental Impairment and Unfitness to be Tried) Act 1997 who are awaiting a bed at Thomas Embling Hospital. In the past, we Our challenge is to maintain a reputation could transfer these patients promptly to that preferentially attracts staff by focusing hospital, but the demand for beds within the hospital is increasingly outstripping the on training, professional development and supply of beds available. innovation in what we do for patients.

ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 35 This year marked a significant milestone for the Centre for Forensic Behavioural Science (CFBS) and the Forensicare research program. In 2017, the CFBS marked the 10th anniversary since its inception. To celebrate, we hosted an event at the new CFBS premises in Heidelberg Road in June 2018, which was attended by almost 100 senior staff from Forensicare and Swinburne University, current and former students, and other guests. The CFBS was initially established in 2006 and began operating in 2007. The CFBS is uniquely situated as both the research and training arm of Forensicare and as a research centre in the Faculty of Health, Arts and Design at Swinburne University, which we joined in January 2014. The research program receives outstanding support from both Forensicare and Swinburne University. The CFBS is a community of scholars and

36 practitioners, and we have a wonderful team of staff, honorary staff, research fellows, research assistants and of course students. Here is a snapshot of some our accomplishments over time: • We have published more than 450 peer-reviewed journal articles, 11 books, 135 book chapters and many reports to government.

FORENSICARE • We have graduated 67 doctoral students, plus many master’s and honours students. • We have been awarded more than $10 million in research grants and contracts. Research overview – • The CFBS currently has 25 Doctor of Psychology students and 10 PhD Centre for Forensic students. • There are 160 unit enrolments this semester in the forensic behavioural Behavioural Science and sciences courses. • Staff members regularly present Forensicare Research at conferences nationally and internationally. • We have contributed to, given evidence at and been cited by royal commissions, law reform commissions, parliamentary committees and other policymaking bodies. • Staff members have held leadership positions in national and international collegial bodies. to thecommunity. differences tothelivesofconsumersand mostly translationalandapplied;itmakes Most importantly, theworkwedois related agenciesinAustraliaandabroad. human services,police,parole boards and engages regularly withcourts,corrections, to research excellence.Thecentre also Forensicare’s longstandingcommitment recognisedinternationally andreflects Work generatedfrom theCFBSis obstacles. achieve ouraimswhileovercoming such 2018–20 are targetedathelpingus The objectivesintheResearchStrategy staff, servicemangersandconsumers. dissemination ofoutcomestoForensicare between thisactivityandthedirect outcomes, there isoftenadisconnect publication andpresentation ofresearch CFBS) hasanimpressive track record of While Forensicare (inpartnershipwiththe organisations nationallyandinternationally. practice research produced byother and toremain informedregarding best based innovationinpracticeandoutcome, responsibility todemonstrate evidence- and internationally.
