Be resolute
The Resolute team headed by psychiatrist Dr Richard Magtengaard is preparing for its first clinical masterclass – “Caring for those who Serve” at the UWA Club on Saturday, September 2.
Resolute has constructed and is executing a comprehensive approach toward integrating high-quality, trauma-informed clinical services for ADF personnel, veterans, first responder communities, and their families. This year it is partnering with Soldiers & Sirens for the masterclass.
Dr Magtengaard said clinicians were welcome to attend alongside those who have served (and their supporters) to learn from experts across respective specialties, and gain meaningful insights from those with a lived experience.
The program includes presentations from James Hepworth, principal of the Veteran Employment Program at Roy Hill, Dr Michael Winlow on medicinal cannabinoids and therapeutic application, exercise as medicine by Katie Stewart and Alex Lim on ketamine, neuroplasticity, treatment-resistant depression and PTSD among other topics.
For clinicians, eight hours of CPD points can by claimed.
All proceeds from the day will go to Soldiers & Sirens WA charity.
