The service has undergone a redevelopment phase, which was completed in 2001. The redevelopment plan is focused on the completion of:
- Extended care and rehabilitation/dual diagnosis units, which will target people with a chronic mental disorder, who are unable to maintain themselves in the community with supports from existing local services.
