Spent a great day in Townsville yesterday with Northern Queensland PHN and other providers on the MyndKind program. MyndKind is the PHN's innovative approach to mental health care, which Rural Health Connect is proud to be a part of, as a funded provider for psychological therapies. The new approach involved looking at the entire client journey to see what could be done better, ensuring clients are always at the centre of care. It is built around the following priciples:
* Support starts at the time of asking
* Every interaction builds confidence in the system
* Overwhelmingly compassionate
* Outcomes that really matter
* The system stretches, not the person
This program is nearly one year in now and it is great to see all of the priciples in action, with positive outcomes for clients.

Perinatal Loss Psychologist | Rural Health Connect
Rural Health Connect is an online platform that links people to psychologists over video calls and phone calls. We originated in Central QLD in response to a clear need for better access to psychologists in rural areas and have now expanded across rural Australia.

Ten sessions are not enough.

Most Australians can’t overcome complex trauma in ten psychology sessions – sometimes, it takes that long just to build trust.

Let clinical need, not funding caps, decide how long someone receives care.

Join us in calling for a return to 20 Medicare-funded sessions per year. Psychology isn’t a luxury, it’s essential care.

For anyone impacted by this disaster, we hope that you stay safe. We will be here to support you when, or if, you need it.

This , we want to shine a light on perinatal loss. Every day an estimated 291 families are impacted by stillbirth and miscarriage, and each experience of pregnancy loss is unique to the individual. Our Perinatal Loss Support program is open to anyone impacted by perinatal loss, including stillbirth, miscarriage, termination or neonatal death. This includes all family members and those impacted by a historical loss.

You can speak to a trained psychologist over telehealth, at bulk billed rates for anyone that needs it. Additional measures and trainings are in place to ensure support is culturally safe, across different cultures, religions and backgrounds. Sessions are done under Medicare with a Mental Health Treatment Plan.
If you have been impacted by perinatal loss, please take this flyer to your GP and ask for a referral to RHC.
