ASPM Public Lecture: Australian Launch of the Maudsley Deprescribing Guidelines needs to feature prominently on the website – this is one of the largest collaborations ASPM has undertaken and it has a global significance. I would be concerned that the lecture, under Resources, still needs to be found and clicked (although I do note your search bar…). Embedded YouTube video/s are fantastic though.

Podcasts

A couple of podcasts in our collaboration with HealthEd were released. Our very own Dr Johanna Lynch shared her expertise in trauma-informed care from the perspective of a GP. She pointed out the difference between single incident trauma as an objective measure of traumatic events and a more nuanced primary care approach of the trauma-informed lens – noticing the subtle subjective experiences of hopelessness or overwhelming life stories that impact the physiological and social wellbeing in our patients. This podcast offers ways practical forward for both GPs and their patients
