SWSPHN Acting Chief Executive Officer, Amy Prince, joined other stakeholders, including Assistant Minister for Mental Health and Suicide Prevention, Emma McBride, and Macarthur MP, Dr Michael Freelander MP, on a visit to the new Campbelltown Medicare Mental Health Centre site on 12 August.

SWSPHN has commissioned Grand Pacific Health and its partners Odyssey House, Relationship Australia and Tharawal Aboriginal Corporation, to operate the Campbelltown centre which will open later this year, providing free, immediate and accessible mental health support for the local community.

Partner organisation leaders, including Relationships Australia NSW CEO, Elisabeth Shaw, Odyssey House NSW Executive Director, David Kelly, were also on hand to see the progress of the site’s fit-out.

The visit gave the Grand Pacific Health team, CEO Adam Philips, CFO Bernie Cox, Campbelltown Service Manager Rachel Slim and Executive General Manager, Older Persons and Strategic Growth, Kellie Kembrey, the opportunity to showcase the space and share their vision for the service.
