A former mental health nurse claims difficult patients were put "in the too hard basket" and inappropriately transferred to Dhulwa, Canberra's most restrictive inpatient facility.
The ACT Human Rights Commission has been critical of patients not charged or convicted of crimes (known as non-forensic patients) being transferred to Dhulwa, which was primarily designed to house adults caught up in the criminal justice system.
They have raised concerns about the practice being illegal.
