Mental health services
SA Health has a comprehensive range of public mental health services for children and adolescents, adults and older people in SA.
Services are provided through community health centres and hospitals, and to consumers in their own homes.
Your general practitioner is able to help and can make referrals to specialist mental health services.
There are also a broad network of non-government organisations that provide many important mental health services with assistance from the South Australian government.
