• Recognise the benefits of My Health Record and what’s in it for your practice and patients

• Identify the privacy and security requirements for accessing My Health Record

• Describe how ePrescriptions, eRequesting of pathology and receiving eReferrals can add value to the practice workflow and benefit patient access to healthcare

• Name the foundational requirements for using Digital Health in practice, including PRODA, HPOS and NASH PKI certificates and where to obtain support for these.

About the Event

The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically impacted workforces around the world and continues to disrupt employment practices across Australia. The need to draft workplace policies relating to COVID-19 vaccinations is a live issue. This webinar is presented by employment and superannuation/insurance lawyers from Maurice Blackburn and will provide a general overview of the state of the law and highlight the key issues around vaccine policies in workplaces, from an employee and employer prospective. Common COVID related questions will be answered such as:

• What are your legal responsiblities as an employer and employee with respect to COVID?

• Can you decline someone who is not double vaccinated service if you are a health professional?

• What do you have to do if you have a COVID postive case in your clinic?

• What do you do about vaccine hesitant staff?

About the Event

General practice is often the starting point for young people seeking professional help. This webinar will focus on tips to create a safe space for young people to feel comfortable working with you and provides GPs with the skills to connect in a non-threatening open-hearted way.

Sydney North Health Network and The BlackDog Institute invites GPs, Nurses, Allied Health Professionals, Pharmacists and LHD staff to join us before the Christmas period which can be a challenging time but an opportunity for teens to reach out to their GP.
