https://www.blackdoginstitute.org.auPeople with mental health challenges, particularly those with complex needs, often require more support than conventional health services can provide. But where can they turn for additional help? In this insightful webinar, Dr. Jan Orman is joined by Rachel Green, CEO of SANE Australia, to explore the power of digital mental health services and online psychosocial support.
Learn about Guided Recovery programs, moderated, clinically governed online communities, and other accredited services that provide a safe, supportive environment for individuals and their families. These services, offered by trusted organizations like SANE Australia, can be an invaluable complement to primary care, offering more accessible and targeted support than unmonitored social media groups.
Join us to discover how these innovative solutions can empower those living with mental health challenges and their carers, providing the extra layer of support they need to thrive.
Learning Outcomes:
By the end of the webinar participants will be able to:
- Discuss some digital mental health recovery and psychosocial programs and online community forums that may be useful to their patients/clients and families and carers.
- Describe an understanding of how some of these resources work in practice, their relevance to primary care as a complementary support.
- Discuss how they would recommend online support to the people they see and what outcomes can be expected.
This webinar is designed for GPs, GP registrars, psychologists, and allied mental health practitioners, or any other health professional with an interest in improving outcomes for patients with mental health conditions.
