Medication:
The Talisman Foundation offers government-funded medication as prescribed by the Talisman in-house psychiatrists. Should a resident receive a private prescription from their own psychiatrist, the individual or their families may order and cover the costs. We guide residents in understanding their prescriptions and gaining insights into their medications, ensuring they are well-informed about their treatments. Regular consultations with psychiatrists are arranged, allowing any questions or side effects to be addressed promptly. Additionally, medication for physical health issues such as diabetes or hypertension is
provided and managed at the nearest General Hospital/s, unless the resident opts for private treatment.
