Shrinking the Kimberley: remote area psychiatry in Australia
1NT Mental Health Services, Tamarind Centre, Casuarina, Derby, Western Australia.
Abstract:
The Kimberley, the northernmost region of Western Australia, is still largely an empty wilderness. About twice the size of Victoria, it has a permanent population of some 22,000. Since 1987, the Health Department of WA has provided a psychiatric service to the region, but the practice of psychiatry in such a vast and remote area has proven to be very different from that in larger centres. This paper summarises three years' clinical experience in the region.
