Date and time: Tuesday 22 October 2024 - 6:30pm to 8:00pm

Audience: Health practitioners, GPs and practice managers working in Tasmania

In this session, we will discuss the role Tasmanian GPs and other health professionals play in managing eating disorders using a multidisciplinary team. Acknowledging that GPs are often overly responsible for managing eating disorders within the confines of their practice, this webinar will introduce new services, programs and models to support medical monitoring and optimal care coordination.
