About the authors. Robyn Dunlop is a writer who received her PhD from the University of Newcastle in 2021. She researches late-twentieth century mental health histories with a focus on New South Wales, Australia. An article from this research was published as ‘Mental Health as History: Psychiatry, Community, and General Practice,’ Health and History 21, no. 2 (2019).. On closing the asylums, Australia failed to invest in an alternative model of community mental health care. So there are few alternatives between the GP surgery and the hospital emergency department.
