Free Members' Webinar: Dean’s Grand Rounds - Enhancing Physician Well-being through Innovative Tele-mentoring: NAMAH

Event Information

Staff working in healthcare settings experience significant work-related mental health distress.  An interplay of a number of personal, occupational and socio-environmental factors results in high rates of burnout and mental health problems amongst physicians.  This session of Dean’s Grand Rounds will focus on exploring and understanding this problem through physician experience, case studies and local data. The session will also focus on some unique challenges in low and middle income countries and barriers to seeking mental health support amongst physicians. We will then hear about an innovative approach developed in the National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro Sciences (NIMHANS), India to enhance physician wellbeing.

The programme will run as follows:

Introduction (Professor Subodh Dave, Dean, RCPsych)
Chair (Dr Pratima Murthy, Director, NIMHANS)
Short Mental Health Stories of Doctors: Sad and Happy Lives (Dr Narasimha, Faculty, NIMHANS)
Mental health concerns among medical professionals – Review and synthesis (Dr Jayant Mahadevan, Faculty, NIMHANS)
NAMAH: An Innovative Wellbeing Programme for Physician's Mental Health (Dr Prabhat Chand, Faculty, NIMHANS)
Followed by Q&A
