Carers Can Ask

DISCLAIMER: The Carers Can Ask booklet is currently being updated. Some information relating to services and website links from the 2013 versions is no longer current, however the questions are still very relevant and useful. Updated versions will be available on this page during November 2024. If you have any enquiries concerning the CCA booklet, please email nexus@svha.org.au.

 

It can be an emotional time when a loved one is involved with a mental health service, especially after experiencing a mental health or substance use crisis. Even with the most supportive staff it can be hard for carers to know what to ask, or what you have a right to know.  Nexus have worked with a range of carers, staff and services to come up with this list of questions you might like to ask.  We hope it will empower you at a difficult time.
