To improve access to Mental Health services for people living in rural and remote areas of the North Coast there is a 24 hour a day, seven day a week access line.

Mental Health Access Line: 1300 369 968

The Mental Health Access Line will focus on providing access to mental health services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to people living between Tweed Heads and Port Macquarie. Multi disciplinary mental health professionals staff the line thereby providing a first point of contact to mental health services.

The Mental Health Access Line will assess the needs of the person calling and determine the level of urgency, severity and response required. If the client does require further mental health intervention, this information will be passed on to the Acute Care Service Liaison Worker.
