Register of Authorised Hospitals in Western Australia Register of Authorised Hospitals in Western Australia Mental Health Act 2014 Section 542 Correct as of 8 February 2021 www.chiefpsychiatrist.wa.gov.au Introduction Section 542 of the Mental Health Act 2014 provides for the Governor, by order published in the Western Australian Government Gazette to authorise a public hospital or part of a public hospital to be an ‘authorised hospital’ for the purposes of reception and admission of patients requiring involuntary treatment and care. Section 541 provides for a private hospital whose license is endorsed under section 26DA(2) of the Hospitals and Health Services Act 1927 to be an ‘authorised hospital’ on the recommendation by/of the Chief Psychiatrist, for the reception and admission of patients requiring involuntary treatment and care. Please Note: Grant of Leave under section 105(1)(a)(ii) of the Mental Health Act 2014 from an Authorised part of a Hospital to a Non-Authorised part of a Hospital Subdivision 2 of Division 6 of Part 7 of the Mental Health Act 2014 provides for the granting of leave for an involuntary detained patient from an authorised hospital. Section 105 (1)(a)(ii) provides specifically for leave to be granted to a General Hospital for a patient who requires medical or surgical treatment or treatment likely to benefit the inpatient’s physical health in some other way. When an authorised hospital is within a general hospital campus and an involuntary inpatient needs to be treated in the general part of the hospital it is as though it is leave being granted from the authorised facility to the general hospital, despite the fact that both hospitals (authorised and general) are within the same grounds.

Full Name of Degree: BACHELOR OF ARTS IN HISTORY WITH HONOURS Thesis Title: GRAYLANDS: THE EVOLUTION OF A SUBURB Author: PAM MIKUS Year: 2013 ii ABSTRACT ‘Where is this Graylands?’ A journalist posed this question in 1950 and answered by pointing out that the bus company misspelled the name as Greylands; the postal address was Claremont; the railway station was Karrakatta; and the area fell under the Nedlands Road Board. This thesis endeavours to answer the question by describing the unrecognised importance of this small, seemingly inconsequential locality and explaining themes relevant to its history. The original colonial owners of land in this area were pioneers in the mid-nineteenth century. The first, Captain Harding, bequeathed it to his wife and it was eventually owned by her sister, Maria Gray, who gave her name to the suburb. However, although Graylands was recognised locally as a name from 1896 when land sales began, only a road was gazetted in 1902 until the postal district was recognised in 1959.

  • Cancer Care Closer to Home May 2016
    Cancer care closer to home May 2016 WA Health has strongly invested in cancer care to support the 11,700 Western Australians diagnosed with cancer every year. The recent opening of Fiona Stanley Hospital and St John of God Midland Public Hospital ensure patients have access to excellent cancer care no matter where they live in the metropolitan area. These services are complemented by existing services at the Comprehensive Cancer Centre at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital, Royal Perth Hospital, Rockingham General Hospital and Joondalup Health Campus with specialist cancer care at Princess Margaret Hospital and King Edward Memorial Hospital. Fiona Stanley Hospital (FSH) also houses a Comprehensive Cancer Centre which includes 22 consulting/interview rooms for cancer outpatients, a chemotherapy unit, a day therapy unit, a radiation oncology suite, radiation therapy planning and a breast assessment centre. The Cancer Centre has been developed around a private courtyard and features a separate entrance and drop-off area to improve privacy and access for patients and their visitors. What treatment can patients expect? With 80 per cent of FSH's cancer patients treated as outpatients, the cancer service has taken a multidisciplinary approach to treatment. This means several specialties work together, including physicians, radiology, pathology, radiation, medical oncology, nursing, counselling, family support services, and allied health. Patients also have access to services such as physiotherapy, clinical psychology, occupational therapy, social work, pharmacy, dietetics and speech pathology, all in one location. 1 Patients receiving targeted radiation therapies benefit from greatly reduced waiting times and faster treatment with state- of-the- art equipment such as the latest in linear accelerator (linac) technology.

  • Submission Is Attached at the End of This Submission
    Dr Neville F Hills, FRANZCP, MRCPsych.,LLM, PhD. 23 January, 2020 Dear Commissioners, Re: Productivity Commission 2019, Mental Health, Draft Report, Canberra I am a retired psychiatrist with a special interest in aged care. Unfortunately I have only sighted this discussion paper today so my remarks are brief. May I say that as a Western Australian, I along with many others in this State, have a remote view of our Commonwealth Government, although I have worked in New South Wales and England in my career. As a largely State government employed psychiatrist, I have observed the extent to which our WA government has used the involvement of Commonwealth agencies and funding, to withdraw local services and resources built up over past decades. Increasing Commonwealth interventions in State managed health care is, in my experience, counter-productive. You must appreciate that Perth is as far from the Sydney-Canberra axis as Moscow is from London. Would people in London accept directions and distribution of their taxes from Moscow? This paper so far is a rehash of multiple State and Commonwealth motherhood statements and wish lists. Clinical staff have been well aware for decades what is needed to provide effective services, but instead we have seen restructuring repeatedly destroy good services, while chasing ephemeral and politically driven false concepts. In WA good State services have been dismantled and abandoned in the pursuit of false economies and rationalisations. The pursuit of privatisation at the expense of properly funded and managed State services has proved costly and ineffective. It is time to admit it has not worked in providing mental health care for seriously unwell people.
