Next Step Drug and Alcohol Services
We provide a range of treatment services for people experiencing problems associated with their alcohol and other drug use, as well as support for families and the Drug and Alcohol Clinical Advisory Service.

New governance model
A new Community Mental Health, Alcohol and Other Drug Council will be established to complement the Mental Health Executive Committee. Both will have consumer and carer/family representation and will be chaired by the Mental Health Commissioner.

Drug and Alcohol Clinical Advisory Service
The Commission has launched a specialist telephone consultancy service that provides clinical advice to health professionals on issues relating to patient management of alcohol and other drug use. GPs, hospital based physicians, and other Western Australian health professionals can access this service.
