  • Psychiatry Attraction, Recruitment and Retention Needs Analysis Project
    31 August 2017 Mr Trevor Hunt Manager, Mental Health and Drugs Workforce Portfolio Strategy and Reform Department of Health and Human Services 50 Lonsdale Street MELBOURNE VIC 3000 Dear Mr Hunt Re: Final report to DHHS on the Victorian Psychiatry Workforce The Victorian Branch of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP) wishes to present the Victorian Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) with the report Psychiatry Attraction, Recruitment and Retention Needs Analysis Project. The DHHS approached the RANZCP in 2015 to undertake a project that would contribute to psychiatry workforce planning and development for Victoria’s public mental health sector. The project objectives, activities and deliverables were to: 1. Undertake a research and consultation exercise to identify factors and challenges influencing the psychiatry workforce. 2. Develop recommendations for future short-, medium- and long-term project work to address challenges faced by psychiatry in Victoria, with a particular focus on attraction, recruitment and retention to rural settings and to public mental health settings. 3. Produce a final report on methods, findings and proposals for possible future work that addresses attraction, recruitment and retention issues for psychiatry. The final report outlines the methods and findings from an extensive review of literature and data sources, together with more than 40 key informant interviews with psychiatrists working across Victoria. The report concludes that Victoria’s Approved Mental Health Services (AMHS) struggle to perform their role, with barely the capacity to care for Victorians during periods when they are severely mentally ill. Along with population and demographic changes over recent decades, public mental health services have experienced a reduction of funding in real terms to cope with these changes.

The 2002-2003 State Budget has increased recurrent funding for public hospitals by 8.2 per cent while funding for mental health services has increased by 11.6 per cent over 2001-2002. The Budget builds on the successful Hospital Demand Management Strategy introduced last year that has more than halved ambulance bypass and reduced waiting lists. Over the next four years the Hospital Demand Management Strategy will be enhanced by a further $464 million. Medical equipment and hospital infrastructure will be significantly upgraded through additional funding of $65 million and Victoria’s medical research institutes will receive $35 million to maintain their leading role in medical research. Hospitals will be assisted to fund superannuation and purchase medical supplies through additional funding of $169 million. Community mental health services such as mobile support and treatment teams and supported housing services will receive additional funding of $36 million, $25 million (included in the Hospital Demand Management Strategy) will be provided to open more mental health hospital beds, and for new diversionary services.
