Please share with your networks. \nA/Prof Magdalena Simonis AM\nPresident AFMW \n\nAbout The Webinar\nA duty to care: Mental health service responses to family violence\n(Including diverse populations experiencing family violence) \nExperiences of family domestic violence\, although not a mental health diagnosis can cause\, and exacerbate mental health problems\, and pose serious risk to self or others. \nEven though survivors are more likely to tell health professionals than others about intimate partner violence\, it is rare that such disclosure occurs spontaneously. Psychiatrists have a duty to care\, and must be open to the possibility of family violence at all times. \nHow common is FV in your practice? Are you more likely to see survivors? What about those from culturally diverse backgrounds? Or people who use violence? What is the trajectory of a survivor\, starting from a General Practitioners consulting room\, a referral\, followed by experience in psychiatric setting\, risk assessment\, safety planning and further referral pathways? \nThe webinar will address the above questions. \nWebinar presented by RANZCP Family Violence Psychiatry Network \n  \nDetails\nDate: 6pm AEST 11 October 2023 \nLocation: Online \n  \nRegister\nVisit the RANZCP event page \n  \n  \n  \n  \n Associate Professor Magdalena Simonis AM\, AFMW Immediate Past PresidentAssociate Professor Magdalena Simonis AM is a Past President of the AFMW (2020-2023)\, former President of VMWS (2013 & 2017-2020) and current AFMW National Coordinator (2024-2026).
