3 INTRODUCTION & BACKGROUND Mental Health and Addiction Services in Southland are community based, providing treatment and care across all age ranges in all parts of the sector, including the primary sector. They are delivered by a diverse range of agencies including the public and private sectors, NGO s, and community groups. To effectively deliver quality outcomes for consumers and their families requires collaboration amongst providers and stakeholders in a number of different settings. Integration of services and establishing a continuum of care for clients and families is achieved by providers and stakeholders through communication, collaboration and efficient coordination of services. The Southland Mental Health and Addiction Services Map and Directory is a resource designed to support this process by supplying providers and stakeholders with up-to-date information on who s working in the sector and what their activities include. Developing and documenting a map for mental health and addiction services is important for a number of reasons: To identify the key providers and agencies delivering services (Southern DHB contracted and non-contracted) in the District. To update the levels of service being delivered by providers and stakeholders including where they are provided. To identify and analyse the needs of the population. To inform and support future planning and funding decisions and priorities. To identify a range, and scope, of services that are configured to best meet the needs of the community. To share information and promote a better understanding of mental health and addiction providers and the services they deliver. To acknowledge the important contribution made by stakeholder agencies and not-for-profit groups to the mental health and addiction sector. The information contained in this document will be updated annually to reflect changes in the mix of providers, contact details and the services provided. Issue Date June Last Reviewed February

4 SOUTHLAND MENTAL HEALTH & ADDICTIONS NETWORK - The Southland Mental Health and Addiction Network, called Future Directions was established in 2005, and aims to deliver better services by providers for mental health and/or addiction consumers and their families.

The diagram illustrates the relationship, and each of them has representatives sitting on the NRG. The NRG meet every month to discuss mental health and addiction issues, develop and implement projects and to get updates on projects already running.

European Maori Pacific Peoples Asian The Southern DHB district is geographically large covering an area of 38,214 km 2. The population is evenly split between urban and rural settings. Main centres include Invercargill, Gore, Queenstown, Arrowtown, Mataura, Winton, Bluff, Riverton, Stewart Island and Te Anau.. One in five people will experience a mental illness in their lifetime. The Governments National Mental Health Strategy requires that mental health services are delivered to the 3% of the population who are most severely affected by mental illness.

In the Southland District this equates to an additional 18,190 individuals. Issue Date June Last Reviewed February

28 MENTAL HEALTH ADULT SERVICES - Activity, Rehabilitation, Education & Employment An important component of any recovery from a period of mental unwellness is rehabilitation and activity. No two people will experience the same journey to recovery. For some, the journey is made easier by receiving ongoing support in the community. For others, activity and work related programmes facilitate their recuperation and recovery. Activity programmes can, for some, also provide a stepping stone to further educational and employment opportunities. Southern DHB Activity Centres Southern DHB Mental Health, Addictions & Intellectual Disability Services run three Activity Centres in Southland. Rata House and 494D in Invercargill and Welcome In, in Gore. Welcome In is supported by the Gore and Districts Mental Health Support Group.
