Family and carer support services

Supporting someone who is experiencing mental health issues can be a challenging time for everyone.

Southern NSW Local Health District is committed to supporting the families and carers of people who are experiencing mental health difficulties.

Our staff are here to help you and your family, and they are committed to working with families and carers.

We also have access to specialist family and carer services that can provide extra support.

How will the family and carer services help you?

The family and carer services will:

work closely with you and your family to give you the information and support you need
ensure that decisions about treatment and care are made with you and your family member
connect with you, and ask how we can support you
ask for your feedback about how we can improve our services
tell you how you have helped to change our services.
