2019 IPEP Conference
IPEP HSN proudly presents the 5th annual Interprofessional Practice Conference:
PSYCHOSOCIAL CARE IN HEALTHCARE SETTINGS
​
The Conference is a full-day event focusing on the psychosocial care needs of patients.
​
As health professionals, we must be equipped to provide person centred care within collaborative, multidisciplinary teams. Encounters with the health system can be distressing and anxiety-provoking for patients and families. Clinicians must develop the skills to sensitively assess and manage emotional, as well as physical needs.
​
Hear from expert speakers on topics relating to holistic health practice, with a series of talks discussing the management of challenging emotional situations in healthcare. Develop your leadership skills by working with a multidisciplinary team in problem-solving and case-based scenarios.
​
The conference will run from 10:00am to 4:00pm, with registrations opening at 9:45am. Full catering including morning tea and lunch provided!
Collaboration starts now.
