Forensicare provides forensic mental health services for men at the Metropolitan Remand Centre (MRC) through its Mobile Forensic Mental Health Service (MFMHS).
Mobile Forensic Mental Health Unit
The MFMHS commenced operations in January 2015. Designed by Forensicare, the MFMHS provides forensic mental health services for men at the Metropolitan Remand Centre and other regional prisons.
The service model includes:
- unique extensive group programs,
- specialist neuropsychology (first of its kind in Victoria)
- ‘inreach’ to the Melbourne Assessment Prison to facilitate supported prisoner movements to the Metropolitan Remand Centre; and
- transition outreach to regional prisons for clients when sentenced.
Satellite psychology services also operate from Barwon Prison and Marngoneet Correctional Centre.
