Oakden Mental Health Facility
Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:54): My question is to the Minister for Health. Considering that commonwealth funding for the Oakden Older Persons Mental Health Service was suspended in 2008 and a senior clinician lodged serious concerns in 2015, why is the current SA Health review limited to 2016 only?
The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries) (14:54): The Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse I think addressed the issues in her ministerial statement in the last sitting week. I will see if there's any other information that can be offered, but at this stage all I can do is reiterate that the Chief Psychiatrist has been asked to undertake a review into the Oakden facility and three staff have been stood down.
