Hospital care in Tasmania
If you're experiencing mental health challenges and need more support than can be provided through regular appointments or community services, hospital care may be an option. Hospital care is not usually the first step, and it may not be the right option for everyone but it can provide more intensive treatment, closer clinical support, and a safe, structured environment to focus on your recovery.
Everyone's situation is different, and there is no single pathway to getting help. Your GP, psychologist, psychiatrist, or another mental health professional can help you understand what support is most appropriate for your needs and whether hospital care may be beneficial.
If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 000.
