.@mariamichail2: So many challenges for researching in general practice. Researchers need to be embedded in general practices (π―reflects my research implementing screening app for young people in this dynamic and complex setting https://t.co/sLXWQc2HMd) #IASPPrimaryCarePanel
@JoRobinson_Aus @ian_hickie @samueljhockey @chatsafe_au SO much potential, even in relatively simple uses of tech, e.g. screening apps where young people feel more able to disclose sensitive issues to start a conversation (often for the first time) #IASPPrimaryCarePanel https://t.co/u4s9biWEjT
@samueljhockey @ian_hickie @chatsafe_au @MarianneW Young people repeatedly tell us they want #tech to be part of the solution. With suicide rates being stubbornly high and our health system in crisis we need to start listening to them @YOUTHe_au @orygen_aus @Mark_Butler_MP #IASPPrimaryCarePanel
An extremely insightful webinar today about the role of primary care, with, rightly so, a big emphasis on lived experience #IASPPrimaryCarePanel - if you'd like to join our SIG let us know https://t.co/yIwxxLtnO5 https://t.co/xmbLKbd4ln

@farazhmughal (paraphrased!): "There's a lot more guidance for GPs out there for physical health presentations like hypertension, asthma etc. But a real lack of guidance (and evidence) around interventions for suicide/self-harm in primary care." @IASPinfo #IASPPrimaryCarePanel
A great question for our panel "how do we get #SuicidePrevention into medical curriculum?"
