These mental health conditions have significant impact on their employment\, family/relationships\, and wellbeing. \nThis workshop has been designed with a focus on GPs\, to diagnose patients with acute stress disorder\, post-traumatic stress disorder and other comorbidities.

This program is excellent for both reviewing skills and knowledge and also up-skilling the varied health professionals who are often the frontline contacts for support from emergency and other workers and their families experiencing symptoms of PTSD. It has been\, for me\, one of the most valuable 3 hours of clinical training I have participated in.” Participant 2nd March 2021″This was great course\, especially for a rural based GP. I would strongly recommend all my colleagues to enrol in it.” Participant 11th March 2021“This was an excellent course\, very well delivered and relevant to general practice. It is especially relevant in the present times of floods\, fires and COVID!” Participant 25th March 2021 \nFUNDING FOR THIS PROGRAM \nThe Grant Program for Emergency Services Workers trauma Care\, including PTSD support services\, is funded by the Australian Government’s Department of Home Affairs. \nhttps://minister.homeaffairs.gov.au/davidlittleproud/Pages/mental-health-grants-support-emergency-services-workers.aspx \nSELF-CARE NOTE \nThis workshop discusses PTSD and trauma.
