Following the recent tragedy at Bondi Beach, the role of general practice healthcare providers in supporting families and community is both critical and deeply valued. 

We recognise the weight of this responsibility and the importance of ensuring that those who care for others are also cared for themselves.

We warmly invite you to a professional support session designed to:

• Strengthen your capacity to respond in a trauma-informed way and to guide families and community toward the right services
• Equip you with practical strategies to safeguard your own wellbeing, including understanding and mitigating burnout, vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, and other secondary stress impacts.

This session this evening will focus on understanding how people might be feeling now and what you can do to best support them in these very early days, while also taking care of your own wellbeing. 

Facilitated by Professor Nicole Sadler is the CEO of Phoenix Australia and Alex Howard is the Director of Disasters and Large-scale Emergencies. Both are clinical psychologists with expertise in assisting individuals, workplaces and communities to manage the impact of trauma, including following disasters and other large scale events.  

Target audience: GPs, AHPs, Nurses, Practice staff and Managers
