About us:
As part of the National Health Reforms (http://www.yourhealth.gov.au), the Queensland Government introduced 17 new Hospital and Health Services (HHS) as of 1 July 2012. Metro South Health became the service responsible for providing public health services to the large and diverse geographical area incorporating Brisbane's south side, Logan-Beaudesert, Redland and Wynnum.
Metro South Addiction and Mental Health Services has recently undergone a re-alignment of service delivery across its current facilities. Consumer care is now based on individual needs, assessment and diagnosis rather than location; however, consumers are reviewed as close as possible to their residence.
