@HelenaRoennfel2 Helena, I would love to read more. Is this a summary of your findings across multiple papers or is there a specific paper I could read? 🙏

@teqswarner Will the Deputy Director be in contention for any promotional opportunities? He's been working hard! Maybe the micro managing will let him down 😂

Psychologists are at “crisis point” after dealing with the fallout from COVID-19 and a string of natural disasters.

#ANUExpert Dr Emily Macleod says they need more support.

Leading a workshop on lessons learned from introducing an upstream suicide capability initiative for an industry not typically associated with suicide prevention is a wonderful way to start #NSPC23

[Dr Sarah Wayland (she/her) @sarahlwayland]

Great to see this co-authored piece by @MyfMaple and I published today. We spoke to 100s of carers and found that telling people on discharge to do ‘suicide watch’ without explaining how that might be done (and for how long) increases distress for many #SuicidePrevention #carers

[Dr Jessica Stokes-Parish PhD, RN @j_stokesparish]

Commentary re healthcare heroes evolved over time, focusing mainly on so-called "frontline" workers. Nurses & doctors frequently in the news.

Many professions unseen/ignored - allied health, primary care providers, pharmacy and the list goes on.

We revisited with three lenses

@AliciaJeanKing Oh. That's mean 🙁

[Connie @ClinPsychConnie]

@AliciaJeanKing I have previously noted in a resubmission that in order to respond to all reviewer feedback I needed to go over the word limit (by about 250). Not sure if unusual but they accepted it, no question.

I am kind of amazed to have a new paper that's just been published in @IncarcerationJ:

"Russian dolls and epistemic crypts: A lived experience reflection on epistemic injustice and psychiatric confinement".

Joining the #AAS22 preconference virtually from Canberra/Ngunnawal Country with Miss Esther. First workshop: Learning about demonstrating effectiveness of #SuicidePrevention initiatives

[Connie @ClinPsychConnie]

How do you develop a suicide prevention capability initiative for an industry not typically associated with suicide prevention? Looking forward to sharing our insights at #AAS22 where we talk about the development of Compassionate Foundations for Australian Public Servants

[Connie @ClinPsychConnie]

@MsJennCarson @AASuicidology I love this 😻
