Midland Mental Health Unit
Our 56-bed Mental Health Unit provides a multidisciplinary service to people who need acute mental health care. The 3 wards on our unit include:
- 25-bed adult mental health ward
- 16-bed older adult mental health ward
- 15-bed secure ward.
Our purpose-built unit provides a safe and supportive environment which includes natural light in all bedrooms, four courtyards, a gymnasium and art therapy rooms.
We have strong links with community mental health services, other primary health care providers and social services to ensure you receive ongoing care after leaving hospital. Our older adult care includes a discharge follow up service to ensure you are coping back in the community.
Mental health referrals
You can be referred to the unit by community mental health services or other medical specialists, or by self-presenting at the Emergency Department for review by our mental health practitioners.
Children and teenagers
Children and teenagers in urgent need of mental health care will receive care in our Emergency Department and then be transferred to another hospital for ongoing care in an appropriate environment.
Inpatient services
Our inpatient services include medical consultation, assessment, treatment and diagnosis.
During your stay in hospital, you will have a primary nurse who will be responsible for coordinating your care. You can ask your primary nurse, or any other member of the nursing team, about your care.
We have a range of therapeutic activities available which will be discussed with you once you are admitted. You are encouraged to take part in these activities as evidence shows your recovery is aided by participation.
Mental health outpatients
We work closely with you to ensure you can access local community mental health services for ongoing treatment, management and rehabilitation after you are discharged.
Paediatric care
Our 12-bed paediatric ward provides care for children and young people up to 16 years of age. We care for patients admitted through our Emergency Department, as well as patients transferred from Perth Children’s Hospital.
Our six-bed Special Care Nursery provides care for babies born from 34 weeks gestation and supports mothers and babies with a range of neonatal care needs.
Our public outpatient service sees patients referred in by their general practitioner and patients who require follow up after an inpatient admission.
A dedicated team of consultants, junior doctors, paediatric and neonatal nurses and allied health professionals support our paediatric and neonatal services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The team works collaboratively to ensure children, young people and their families receive coordinated, family-focused care.
