Step Up/Step Down Joondalup

The service offers a safe and supportive space to reduce distress and promote recovery. Our 22-bed centre offers 24-hour support. Consumers have access to a range of group and individual programs to build their confidence and skills, develop a sense of meaning and purpose, identify personal goals, and develop their own wellbeing plan. 

The service is not a replacement for acute inpatient care but an option that can prevent the need for hospitalisation when people are aware they are becoming unwell.

Who is this for?

The service provides support for people who: 

• Are aged 16 years and over (those aged 16-17 years may require additional consent). 
• Are primarily experiencing a mental health challenge. 
• Are able to engage cooperatively in a group setting and willing to participate in the programs offered. 
• Are not currently experiencing homelessness.
