Treating doctor-patients – Tips and traps
On-demand recorded 30 Sep 2021
Doctors face unique barriers to accessing health care and it's well recognised that wiithout their own GP, doctors are more likely to self-diagnose, self-treat and self-prescribe, which can lead to poorer health outcomes. It's not all bad news though, doctors can learn a specific skillset that helps them treat other doctors more effectively.
During this webinar you'll gain insight into supporting doctor health and wellbeing, as we cover:
- the key health risks and health seeking behaviour of doctors
- strategies for reducing the barriers to accessing health care for doctor-patients
- Improving the quality and outcomes of consultations with doctor-patients.
