Event Description
- Full Description:
- The societal impact of people living with mental health challenges is far-reaching. Frontline workers – our emergency services and health care staff – often navigate and provide support to people experiencing mental health conditions. What role does research play in preventing this from happening at the start? Are we ensuring that those in need are receiving the care and appropriate response in their moment of need? Is our approach to acute mental health situations working?
In a panel discussion moderated by Professor Tom Burne, with panellists, Dr James Kesby, Professor Ed Heffernan and Dr Zoe Rutherford, from The University of Queensland and Queensland Centre for Mental Health Research (QCMHR), this special mental health week event seeks to highlight the role that research can play in giving first responders and health care staff the tools they need to best support people in mental health crisis.
