Caboolture Youth Step Up Step Down

Youth SUSD services are for young people aged 16 to 21 years of age who have recently experienced, or who are at increased risk of experiencing, an acute episode of mental illness or further deterioration of mental health. The integrated model is designed to provide a service option for young people whose treatment and recovery is better suited to intensive, short-term (up to 28 days) treatment and support.

Our services

Youth SUSD services are community bed-based (sub-acute) mental health services operating in a rehabilitative and residential environment in the community, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The Caboolture Youth SUSD service operates as an integrated model where the Metro North Hospital and Health Service (MNHHS) provides clinical services alongside provision of psycho-social recovery support services by Mind Australia (Mind).

How to access this service

Admission to the Youth SUSD is for existing consumers of the service – either inpatient or community – and is arranged following case discussion with your treating team.
