Today is national R U OK? Day, with the theme “There’s more to say after RU OK?”
As GPs, you play a key role in supporting your patients’ mental health, but it can be easy to lose sight of your own wellbeing when you are busy caring for the community.
It is important that you look after your mental health as much as ever and as well as talking things through with someone you trust, there is also a range of resources and programs to support you and your practice teams:
• WAPHA General Practice Wellness Program
• Health and Wellbeing support for rural generalists
• TEN: The Essential Network for Health Professionals
