Event Information
Overview
Targeted at psychiatrists more established in their independent practice, this conference is designed to help doctors optimise all aspects of their work life, and navigate the inevitable vicissitudes of the work that we do. From experiencing the suicide of a patient in private practice, the successful management of complaints, to broadening the scope of your practice and retirement planning - for the ultimate happy ending - this half day conference should have something to cater for all who have embraced independent practice. At the end of the conference we hope delegates will feel more confident to be creative in their work, to anticipate and mitigate challenges, and embrace a proactive stance.
The programme will consist of short presentations from experts and consultant psychiatrists with ample time for questions after each talk, and will be followed by an informal networking opportunity for delegates before the close.
