When I look at the cuts and changes, they seem like anti-natal policies. This is in line with the move to 'adjust' euthanasia, reduce healthcare, cut public services, reduce incomes, increase individual property owner rights, criminal rents and transition ECE to childcare services to glorified babysitting services. The bigger picture is thoroughly dystopian. Thanks for continuing to write about the lived experiences and consequences.
I wonder how this aligns with the government's System and Services Framework rolled out July 2023? Young people will not required to transition to adult services until reaching their 26 birthday.
Theoretically young people should still fall under CAMHS.
There seem to be a lack of awareness in this important framework and it's implementation across the board as a legislative requirement and not simply a 'nicety'.
Its cruel. But it's the visible spectrum. Support of any kind for either primary carer or SMI adult child hovering in cruel circumstances often on the high threshold of the MH Act is zero where, under collapsing primary & secondary health services, the Privacy Act is often misused to head off accountability. So what is going on (staff churn, continuity burn) and NOT going on is invisible. H&D Commissioner obliged by facts occasionally made visible, to write a letter to Frontline MH workers yo write letters of apology.
A genuine, responsive, faithful, proactive, participatory and anticipatory health service would get the facts from ground level investigations and then calibrate resources to need, including development of preventative, community-based, eco-psychosocial locality services.

Death by a thousand cuts…

A question to be raised.
