Mental health reforms led by Wooldridge included the significant re-drafting of the Victorian Mental Health Act. This was the first time Victoria's mental health legislation had been re-drafted in 25 years. The reforms placed patients and their family at the centre of decisions about their treatment, care and recovery. At the conclusion of the process, the Director of the Victorian Mental Illness Awareness Council stated "is the first Mental Health Minister I've ever worked with who is completely committed to listening to consumers". Part of those reforms included establishing Australia's first Mental Health Complaints Commissioner and the Mental Health Tribunal to hear and determine patients' treatment under the Act, including applications for the use of electroconvulsive treatment (ECT).
