Description:
Behavioural and mental health issues are a growing health and economic burden globally. 1 in 6 children in Queensland are developmentally vulnerable with identified prevalence rates for children with behavioural issues, anxiety, ASD, ADHD, learning difficulties, bullying, self-harm, mood disorders and gender identity issues.
Additionally, children’s psychosocial wellbeing, educational attainment and quality of life can be severely affected if not addressed in a timely way.
This innovative, 20-week tele-mentoring series uses collaborative education & case presentations by joining GPs & other health clinicians together with health specialists, to improve knowledge and capability when supporting children with challenging behavioural & mental health conditions.
By attending this series, you will become skilled in effective behaviour and mental health management, within the context of the family and community environment.
