Our story
The Glynnview Multi-Professional Practice (GMPP) was formed when Life Glynnview Psychiatric Hospital was established. The hospital was designed to provide the best possible mental healthcare in a tranquil and therapeutic environment. We wanted to ensure that professionals who consult at this hospital offered the highest quality care, and are held to the highest professional standards. We also wanted to create a cohesive team to take care of every patient admitted here.The GMPP is a group of professionals from different specialties who have formally undertaken to provide the best possible care to patients admitted to Life Glynnview. We have made this commitment towards each other as a team, to Glynnview Psychiatric Hospital, and most importantly to our patients. By creating this practice we take ownership of the care we provide. We are held accountable by each member to uphold the highest ethical standards and the best mental health care possible. We continually assess our progress toward this end, and measure whether the outcomes consistently reflect this goal.
Offering the highest standards of mental healthcare, working in such a beautiful environment and in such a cohesive group, is a source of pride for each GMPP member. The Glynnview is the preferred hospital that patients recommend, doctors refer to, and which the industry follows.
We believe that working towards mental healthcare involves more than reducing mental illness, and that good mental health is attainable. We agree with the World Health Organization which states:
Mental health is a state of well-being in which every individual realises his or her own potential, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to his/ her community (WHO).
Our Values:
- Integrated and holistic care
- Safe and nurturing environment
- Transformative through empowerment
- Transcendence and fulfillment
- Responsive health care
- Responsible and trusted
