RECOVERY - The Centre of our Practice.
Bluegum is built around a strong focus of RECOVERY, building from the moment of initial contact with the Practice to an eventual desired outcome of you being independent of regular mental health care.
FOLLOW UP - Self paced and collaborative
Bluegum care is based on self-agency and low impact FOLLOW UP, which can be scaled depending on your needs. Urgent acute care is not able to be provided, but referral assistance is accessible to existing participants.
LOCATION - We create a relaxing, safe environment situated at multiple locations.
Based in its rural home at Bombala,and the Bluegum bush retreat south of Jindabyne, Bluegum Practice is also available at a consulting room at Bungendore. This combination of practice LOCATIONS provides great flexibility for our work to align with people's needs and intentionally represents analogue health care recovery.
We want you to feel you are in a relaxed and comfortable environment and not in the hospital system, or a wholly suburban / CBD based practice. If able, nature-based health care is provided offsite at Bluegum Outdoors, an alpine bush block south of Jindabyne.
