South Australian services

We offer a range of mental health services, including supporting people living with psychosocial disability to transition to the NDIS, counselling, acute inpatient support, and community rehabilitation through supported accommodation.

Psychosocial Rehabilitation Support Programs

Extended Transition Support (ETS)

Adelaide Metro & Hills, Fleurieu, Kangaroo Island & Riverland regions

Existing Personal Helpers and Mentors programs (PHaMs) and Partners in Recovery (PIR) clients who have not yet assessed their NDIS eligibility or transitioned to the NDIS can receive support through ETS. It ensures people living with a mental health condition can continue to access mainstream and community services.

Continuity of Support (CoS)

Adelaide Metro & Hills, Fleurieu, Kangaroo Island & Riverland regions

Existing PHaMs and PIR clients who are ineligible for the NDIS can continue to be supported to meet a similar outcome through CoS. These psychosocial services cover a range of non-clinical supports that focus on building capacity and connectedness at times when it is needed, rather than ongoing support.

National Psychosocial Support Measure (NPSM)

Adelaide Metro area

NPSM services are for people who are living with severe mental health conditions, experience an associated reduction in their functional capacity and are unable to access supports through the NDIS, ETS or CoS. The service aims to improve access to psychosocial support services, mental health outcomes and equity in service availability, reduce the avoidable need for more intense and acute health services and enhance appropriate/optimal use of the health system.
