Mental Health Day

Build confidence in managing mental health conditions with a practical session tailored to the realities of primary care. You’ll explore evidence-based strategies for diagnosing and treating common concerns like anxiety, depression, and adult ADHD, while learning to distinguish between complex conditions such as major depressive disorder and bipolar disorder. The session also covers effective responses to mental health crises, including acute psychosis, with attention to timely intervention and access to care in both urban and rural settings. Through a patient-centered and multidisciplinary lens, you’ll refine your approach to supporting individuals with complex mental health needs.
