The reform of mental health services outlined in this strategic plan rely fundamentally on partnerships and the participation of the broader community. Its success depends on MHS and its staff listening to consumers, their families and carers, and our other partners, and working closely with them to build a service framework that we are all confident in, and which delivers the necessary services to all Tasmanians. A central component of our plan for the future is a model of care for mental health that is centred on consumers, promotes their recovery, and is provided equitably and efficiently. We have built our model of care on best practice based on evidence, using the full range of experience and expertise within our own organisation, and across Australia and the world.
