09.01.2022 Finding solutions to Indigenous suicide prevention is what its all about! please share!

01.01.2022 Good evening from Parliament House in Canberra - tonight the Federal Budget was handed down and there are a number of announcements when it comes to suicide pre...vention. As Chair of Suicide Prevention Australia I am pleased to see the Government continuing its focus on an area that touches the lives of so many Australians. This video is a very breif summary - and here are some of the key points: The Government will invest $338.1 million in mental health. The Government will fund up to 25 Primary Health Networks to roll out beyondblue’s Way Back Support Service in their region, providing outreach, follow-up care and practical support to people discharged from hospital after a suicide attempt. The Government will enhance Lifeline Australia’s telephone crisis service to meet increasing demand, provide more responsive and consistent services and improve connectivity to other services in order to better support people in need. The Government will fund SANE Australia to deliver a targeted suicide awareness campaign, Better Off With You. The campaign will use personal stories of individuals who have survived suicide attempts to change the attitudes and behaviours of people contemplating suicide. It will be piloted in three Primary Health Network regions Western Victoria, North Queensland and Sydney North. The Government will help people to access evidence-based information and advice on mental health services through an improved telephone service and enhanced portal. The Government will invest $102.5 million in two measures to support the mental health needs of older Australians: #1 A $20 million trial to improve mental health services for Australians over 75 years of age whose mental and physical health are at risk because of social isolation and loneliness. The Australian College of Mental Health Nurses will lead the development of a mental health nurse led service focused on reducing the detrimental health and mental health impacts of social isolation. #2 $82.5 million in new mental health services for people with a diagnosed mental disorder living in residential aged care facilities. From 1 January 2019, a new Mental Health Outreach Clinic program will provide professional mental health services to areas where there are currently few or none. The measure also increases the Government contribution to ensuring ambulance services are available from RFDS bases. Readers seeking support and information about suicide prevention can contact Lifeline on 13 11 14. Suicide Call Back Service 1300 659 467. Kids Helpline 1800 55 1800 (for young people aged 5 to 25).
