For people struggling with poor mental health, there can be many barriers to receiving the care they need, such as stigma, lack of awareness, and limited access to services, not to mention the cost of ongoing treatment. 

However, in many cases, the fragmented nature of traditional health care services can be a challenge in itself. For someone who is already finding daily life difficult, dealing with multiple providers can be overwhelming, as can having to repeat their situation to each new provider. 

Severe mental health issues that go unchecked may lead to hospitalisation, which can cause further stress and trauma, compounding the issue rather than alleviating it.

A Holistic Approach to Mental Health

Clarity Health Care addresses this systemic failure by integrating multiple modalities into one cohesive service offered all in one place. Personalised treatment plans and access to a team of professionals provide individuals with high-quality continuity of care within the community.

The team comprises psychiatrists, psychologists, occupational therapists, mental health social workers and registered nurses who collaborate to provide evidence-based care that is flexible, accessible, and tailored to an individual’s specific and evolving needs. This coordinated approach to managing complex mental health cases has been linked to better outcomes for patients.

The Impact of Integrated Care in Reducing Hospital Readmissions

Clarity Health Care’s model is proven to deliver recovery outcomes, with one review showing an impressive 90% reduction in psychiatric hospital readmission due to their intervention. 

With a psychology clinic in Fitzroy and a psychology clinic in Hobart already making a significant impact, Clarity Health Care has recently expanded by opening a new Malvern psychology clinic in Melbourne. This move aims to further enhance the positive effects of their comprehensive approach, particularly in reducing hospital admission rates. 

Early intervention by a team of professionals who work together and can make necessary amendments to the treatment plan in real time helps individuals to maintain their daily lives, work and social connections, all of which are important for recovery. 

Clarity offers comprehensive care tailored to the unique needs of individuals, ensuring they have the tools and support needed to manage their condition. This approach facilitates access to effective and convenient treatment in the community rather than a hospital setting.
