Trauma Informed Care

Campus services adopt practices that reduce the potential for trauma or re-traumatisation, and promote a more collaborative and empowering care environment. "In trauma-informed services, trauma survivors are seen as unique individuals who have experienced extremely abnormal situations and have managed as best they could”. (Dr Cathy Kezelman)

Trauma Informed Preventative Care (TIPC) is one of our core areas of activity that form our integrated Strategy platform. With the aid of lived experience advisors (LEA's), we are designing, testing and evaluating a range of complementary care approaches.

At Mental Health Central we acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which we live, gather and work. We recognise their continuing connection to land, water and community. We pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging.

We acknowledge all people with a lived or living experience of mental ill-health and recovery. At the Campus, we particularly acknowledge children, young people, families, carers, and supporters. We recognise their vital contribution and value the courage of those who share this unique perspective for the purpose of learning and growing together to achieve better outcomes for the Campus, staff, sector, and all people of lived experience.
