The doctors at Geelong Marketplace Medical Centre recognise that not all health concerns are physical, and that our mental health plays a vital role in our overall health and wellbeing.
A Mental Health Care Plan is a personalised plan for those diagnosed with a mental health condition. These include (but are not limited to) depression, anxiety, stress, schizophrenia, or bipolar.
The plan outlines the type of health care services you may require, and clearly defines the goals that you and your doctor aim to achieve. This plan then allows you to access up to 10 sessions per year with mental health professionals, including psychologists, social workers, and occupational therapists.
If you feel you may benefit from a Mental Health Care Plan, have any concerns regarding your mental health, or would like to discuss this further with your doctor, please speak with reception.
