Need for Program
According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, 4.2 million people in Australia received prescriptions for mental health-related conditions between 2017 and 2018. Anxiety disorders are the most prevalent illnesses, followed by affective and substance use disorders. This means that nurses and other health professionals in all healthcare settings will increasingly provide care for those with a primary or co-existing mental health problem and need the ability to provide evidence-based, holistic healthcare that is highly dependent on a sound mental health knowledge base.
Purpose of Program
To provide nurses and other health professionals with an update about common mental illnesses and the holistic care of people.
Your learning outcomes:
Commit to an open mindset on the behaviours of people with mental health conditions so as to provide unconditional positive regard
Apply new learning about mental health conditions in the development of holistic mental healthcare plans
Apply the principles of therapeutic use of self to improve the recovery and healing of those with mental health disorders
Establish clear personal boundaries and maintain them to promote a strong, safe therapeutic alliance within the mental health context
