The service provides crisis support and non-urgent mental health support, and complements the existing network of state-based doctors’ health advisory services.
Doctors’ Health Services Limited has engaged Converge International to deliver the service, deploying mental health professionals experienced in helping people address workplace issues, conflict management, relationship concerns, financial problems, legal matters and lifestyle issues.
Doctors and medical students can access up to three free telehealth counselling sessions by calling 1300 374 377 (1300 DR4 DRS) or visiting www.Drs4Drs.com.au.
