Melton electorate
Mr McGHIE (Melton) (14:40): (6467) My constituency question is to the Minister for Mental Health. In June the previous minister announced that the 30 mental health and wellbeing hubs that opened in late 2021 in communities across Victoria will continue to provide care until mental health locals open across the state—until at least June 2023. The hubs were opened in October 2021 to support Victorians through the challenges of the pandemic and have been extraordinarily successful. Mental health and wellbeing hubs can help patients with a range of different issues, including lowered mood, anxiety, substance use or addiction, or any distress the patient may be facing. They are also able to support people to address life stresses such as homelessness, financial difficulties and social isolation. I had a fantastic opportunity to meet the team at the Melton mental health and wellbeing hub, located at Barries Road. Minister, can you please update my community on the delivery of mental health services for the Melton electorate as the Andrews Labor government delivers on the recommendations of the Royal Commission into Victoria’s Mental Health System?
