Exposing the mental health care system at breaking point | Four Corners Documentary

Doctors and frontline health workers have told Four Corners they can’t stay silent any longer, warning they are witnessing the collapse of public mental health care in Australia’s biggest state. Staff have revealed they feel pressure to discharge patients they think are still seriously unwell. Leaked footage and internal figures show patients in crisis and waiting almost four days for care in one of the country’s busiest emergency departments. The delays are fuelling violence and unsafe discharges. The situation has prompted scores of psychiatrists to leave the public system in NSW, many accusing the government of not taking mental health seriously or providing the funding the system needs to survive. This week, Four Corners goes inside the system to investigate the extent of the crisis and the impact on those who need its care the most.
