@MHResearchUniSA One of most common issues I see as a psychologist is a lack of understanding of medications that have been prescribed. Effective and informative education around medications must become a central aspect of those prescribing to ensure the safety of those in their care.

Psychotropic medication is frequently used in mental health services. Here adults share their experience of healthcare providers who prescribe and distribute medication. The provision of medication education is inadequate and, in some cases, non-existent. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

📣 Tomorrow in @ConversationEDU we join with @maryannekenny to discuss how war, destruction and violence has resonated deeply around the world, the push-pull dynamics of living in the shadow of global catastrophic events, and ways to support the #mentalhealth of people impacted.

I have been blessed with some amazing mentors across my life but can’t express my gratitude enough to these two men. Very grateful to have them attend a special day but also the whole @MHResearchUniSA team for the support across the PhD journey.

@Kylie_E_King @MonashUni @RosesInTheOcean This is amazing news. Great to see this topic being embedded in a course that often doesn’t provide practical learnings for those who are regularly expected to support someone experiencing suicidality.

Super excited to be planning our first ever dedicated unit on Suicide Prevention for psychology undergrads @MonashUni. Featuring lived experience expertise facilitated by @RosesInTheOcean. Rolling out in Semester 1 to a small cohort of alongside an eval of impact for students.

We can learn much about living from research with people who experience suicidal thoughts. A key aspect for deep consideration is on living intentionally, with meaningful plans, goals, and hope for the future as critical to fulfillment. New from @lab_jobes psychologytoday.com/intl/blog/the-…

Despairing to see people waving ‘Vote No’ placards on our streets today. I cannot fathom what they think they stand to lose from a ‘Yes’. Their homes, their livelihoods, their children?? You know - the things we already took!? #VoteYES23Australia
