Mental Health Initial Assessment and Referral (IAR) Training Session

The Australian Government, through the Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Plan, is expanding and implementing the Initial Assessment and Referral (IAR) tool in primary care. The IAR Guidance and Decision Support Tool (IAR DST) is a holistic decision-making framework that uses the stepped- care approach to assist general practitioners and clinicians in matching consumers with the most appropriate mental health services for their needs.

GPs will receive remuneration of $300.00 for attending the information session.
