Our Commitment to Ethical and Professional Excellence

 

The Vocational Mental Health Practitioners Association of Australia (VMHPAA) is a pioneering and inclusive association dedicated to elevating the standards of mental health care across the nation. As Australia's first peak body representing vocational mental health practitioners - those with qualifications at the Certificate IV, Diploma, and Advanced Diploma levels - we are committed to providing the resources, professional development, supervision training, advocacy, and support needed to help our members thrive.

 

As the leading voice for vocational practitioners, VMHPAA places strong emphasis on ethical, responsible, and professional practice. The policies outlined on this page serve as guiding frameworks to assist our members in upholding the highest standards of care, integrity, and conduct in all areas of their work.

​

These policies are living documents, regularly reviewed and updated to reflect emerging best practices, current legislation, and the evolving needs of both practitioners and the communities they serve. Through this commitment, we support our members in being not only effective, but exemplary professionals in the field of mental health.
