Justice Health
Message from the Chief Executive
Justice Health fulfils a valuable role in improving the health status of those who come into contact with the criminal justice system, while also minimising the health consequences of incarceration on individuals, their families and the general community. Commitment to providing the best possible health care to our clients is our key focus.
Justice Health is a growing organisation and at present has some exciting new developments. In addition to the ongoing expansion of our services in Correctional Centres and, Juvenile Justice Centres, the new Long Bay Hospital was opened in July 2008. This new hospital significantly enhances the quality of care available to patients. The first Forensic Hospital in NSW is due to open in late 2008. This Forensic Hospital will provide care for forensic patients and the mentally ill in line with national and international best practice.
What’s New
The Forensic Hospital was officially opened on 18th February 2009 by the Minister for Health, The Hon. John Della Bosca.
