Funded Activity Summary

Approximately 12% of Australians are admitted to hospital each year with a mental health related condition. Hospital care is primarily delivered by mental health nurses; this group makes up the largest cohort of the mental health workforce. However recent research has shown that these nurses spend only 30% of their work time delivering direct care to consumers. This study will test a service model that supports mental health nurses to focus time on delivery of high quality consumer-centred care
