ABC News (Australia) 12/9/2024 News Police should step back in mental health calls: review AUSTRALIA: People experiencing mental health crises are better served by specialists than police, whose presence can instead escalate potentially fatal situations, an internal review has found. The Canberra Times (Australia) 12/9/2024 News Summary Internal Review of the NSW Police Force response to mental health incidents in the community AUSTRALIA: The prevalence of mental ill-health continues to increase within the NSW community and the demands on health services and community supports are stretched. This demand has seen an increased dependence on police as the call of both first and last resort and an over reliance on police as the primary responders to emotional distress and mental health crises. The key recommendation of this review is that the NSWPF work with NSW Health to explore models for responding to mental health incidents in NSW consistent with the principles of the 'Right Care, Right Person' model. This will require further consultation with stakeholders including NSW Health and Ambulance NSW, as well as consumers, peers, carers, and nongovernment organisations involved in mental health service provision. The ‘Right Care, Right Person’ model is centered on a trauma informed response to people suffering emotional distress and mental health crises. It ensures that the agency who can help the most is the agency to respond, and allows police to reinvest in focusing on core policing functions.
