Head to Health Mt Gambier Satellite

⁠⁠⁠As part of the Australian Government investment into Adult Mental Health Centres, Country SA PHN is seeking responses to this Request for Tender (RFT) from suitable organisations to establish and implement a Head to Health satellite site at Mount Gambier to complement mental health services already provided across regional Country SA.

Applicants are invited to outline their approach to provide a welcoming, low stigma, soft entry point to engagement, assessment and treatment for people who may be experiencing moderate to high levels of distress or crisis, including people with conditions too complex for many current primary care services, but who are not eligible for, or who need more timely care than that available through public mental health services.

Whilst the contract term is 2 December 2022 to 30 June 2025, three phases are expected with establishment up to April 2023, followed by imbedding of the service and full implementation by 1 July 2023.

A Market Briefing to prospective suppliers to provide the opportunity to ask questions and clarify information about the RFT will be conducted. Please register your interest ahead of time via email to tenders@countrysaphn.com.au.
Time: 2.00 pm (ACST)
Date: Wednesday, 14 September 2022
