This week, the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care released new Mental Health standards for Community Managed Organisations.

These new standards outline how Community Managed Organisations can best provide quality care and service for those looking at treatment for Mental Health within a safe environment.

Being the first Mental Health standards released in Australia, this will contribute to the efficacy of care provided to the over 800,000 Australians experiencing mental illness.
