GPs are invited to a series of SWSPHN-organised CPD sessions focused on managing stress, and creating a more effective and fulfilling work environment.
Four non-clinical education activities, called GP Living 101, will be held this year for general practices in our region, with topics including:
- tax and property (Zoom) – 9 April
- personal wellbeing (Holiday Inn, Warwick Farm) – 23 May
- MyMedicare (Zoom) – 24 July
- Medico-Legal (Zoom) – 11 September
GP Living 101 recognises the importance of providing holistic support to our GP workforce, which is increasingly under pressure from growing workloads.
It aims to share localised, practical advice on running practices more efficiently, and the tools to improve the wellbeing of staff.
