SUMMARY:COVID-19 vaccination in Australian general practice Quality Improvement Program
DESCRIPTION:Date\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganiser\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin our experts as they discuss latest recommendations for COVID-19 vaccination in older patients. This practice-wide quality improvement exercise will enable you to identify potential barriers to vaccine uptake and check your performance against evidence-based benchmarks. \n\n\n\nThere are two pathways for this program\, one for GPs\, and one for Practice staff (including practice managers\, practice nurses and other relevant practice staff). Please ensure you select the right program for your position. \n\n\n\nThis education is designed to take place over multiple weeks. It does not need to be completed in one sitting. You can stop at any time\, and progress will be saved. You can find education you have started on your Dashboard. \n\n\n\nOn completion of this quality improvement program\, you will be able to:  \n\n\n\n\nUnderstand the current status of COVID-19 in Australia\, in particular its impact on older patients in primary care \n\n\n\nClarify the role of vaccination in preventing COVID-19-related morbidity and mortality in older patients \n\n\n\nReview current best practice recommendations for COVID-19 vaccination in patients aged 65 and older \n\n\n\nUsing a team-based approach\, decide on quality improvement targets and actions related to improving uptake of COVID-19 vaccines in older patients in primary care \n\n\n\nImplement and reflect on practice-wide quality improvement initiatives for increasing COVID-19 vaccine uptake

SUMMARY:Recognising and responding to wellbeing concerns in young people living with diabetes
DESCRIPTION:Date\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganiser\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSupporting young people experiencing mental health and wellbeing concerns can be challenging. Knowing what to look for\, how to ask the right questions\, and when to take further action can make a meaningful difference.  \n\n\n\nThis practical webinar will build participants’ confidence in recognising\, assessing and responding to mental health and wellbeing concerns in young people living with type 2 diabetes.  \n\n\n\nThe session will explore how to identify and screen for risk\, communicate effectively with young people\, and use practical assessment tools to support early identification and appropriate responses.  \n\n\n\nA case study will provide an opportunity to explore a real-world scenario and identify practical strategies for responding to mental health and wellbeing concerns.  \n\n\n\nThis is the fourth webinar in the “Wellbeing Matters: Supporting Young People Living with Diabetes” series\, where we are exploring topics designed to inform\, inspire\, and spark meaningful discussion.  \n\n\n\nThe series is delivered as part of the INSPIRE youth type 2 diabetes (YT2D) study\, led by A/Prof Renae Kirkham at the DIABETES across the LIFECOURSE: Northern Australia Partnership.

SUMMARY:Understanding Trust in Integrated Care Through the Lived Experiences of Motor Neurone Disease (MND)
DESCRIPTION:Date\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganiser\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCo-delivered by IFIC Australia and IFIC Ireland\, this two-part webinar series explores how trust can become a deliberate part of care delivery\, service design and system change.  \n\n\n\nWebinar 1 uses lived experience and research in MND care to examine what trust means\, why it matters and what builds or erodes it.  \n\n\n\nWebinar 2 broadens the focus to consider the role of trust in health equity\, implementation\, policy and practice\, and how trust can be more deliberately supported across care and health systems.  \n\n\n\nThis first webinar will explore trust in situations where needs can change rapidly\, time is precious and care must be coordinated across multiple professionals and services. Participants will examine how trust can be built quickly enough to support timely decision-making\, changing needs and continued engagement with care.  \n\n\n\nParticipants will explore: what trust means within a care relationship; what helps to build\, test or erode trust in professionals and services; how trust is experienced when needs are changing quickly; how trust influences confidence\, communication and engagement with care.  \n\n\n\nFacilitated by: Dr Karen Hutchinson\, Senior Research Fellow University of New South Wales Dr. Dominika Lisiecka Lecturer\, Department of Nursing and Healthcare Sciences Munster Technological University

SUMMARY:What gets in the way of culturally safe and inclusive care?
DESCRIPTION:Date\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganiser\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBias is a normal part of being human. Yet even with the best intentions\, it can act as a barrier to culturally safe and inclusive care\, particularly when it is difficult to recognise or challenging to respond to.  \n\n\n\nJoin MHPN for a free\, CPD-accredited webinar exploring how practitioners can better understand bias\, recognise when it may be influencing care\, and respond in ways that support culturally safe and inclusive care.  \n\n\n\nAttendees will gain practical insights from diverse perspectives that support reflection\, challenge assumptions and strengthen collaboration across disciplines\, while building confidence to engage with discomfort and uncertainty as opportunities for growth and ongoing learning.  \n\n\n\nFlexible screenings at 2pm and 7pm AEST on Wednesday 23rd September 2026.
