About the Older Adult Mental Health and Wellbeing Service

The Older Adult Mental Health and Wellbeing Service (OAMHWS) at Monash Health includes Acute Aged Psychiatry Inpatient Units and Community Mental Health Teams comprised of Aged Psychiatry Assessment Teams, a Residential Support Program (for mainstream nursing home residents), a Psychogeriatric Nursing Home InReach Team and an Intensive Community Treatment team.

There are opportunities for involvement in registrar teaching and examination preparation.
