SUMMARY:Masterclass: Unsettled Infant & Parent Mental Health
DESCRIPTION:Masterclass: Unsettled Infant & Parent Mental Health\n\n\n\n\nStart Date\n28 June 2026\nEnd Date\n28 June 2026\nStart Time\n9:00am\nEnd Time\n5:00pm\nVenue\nZoom\nContact Name\nASPM Education\nContact Phone\n(08) 7557 9556\nContact Email\neducation@aspm.org.au\nWho Can Register?\nAnyone\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr Pamela Douglas will help you develop responsive care for optimal developmental outcomes \n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nUp to 38% of parents report infant sleep problems in the first months of life. Sleep training (or first-wave behavioural approaches) is commonly recommended\, but studies show it does not reduce night-waking and can worsen parental anxiety. The latest research in neuroscience and attachment psychology highlights the importance of responsive care for optimal developmental outcomes. \nAbout 20% of families report infant crying problems in the first few months\, yet most health professionals feel undertrained to manage these cases. Parents of crying babies face increased risk of postnatal depression and often receive conflicting advice\, which increases anxiety. Cry-fuss problems are linked to higher risk of child abuse\, premature breastfeeding cessation\, and later behavioural and developmental challenges. \nImportantly\, both infant regulatory problems and breastfeeding difficulties have bidirectional relationships with postnatal anxiety and depression\, making them key modifiable risk factors for maternal mood and child development outcomes. \nThis course helps you: \n\nApply The Possums Baby and Toddler Sleep Intervention\, an internationally recognised method for supporting parents without leaving babies to cry\nApply the 5-domain NDC approach to managing cry-fuss problems\nApply focused strategies from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Self-Compassion Therapy\, adapted for brief perinatal consultations\nAvoid unnecessary diagnoses and treatments\nUnderstand the underlying research\n\n  \nMembers: $230 \nNon-Members: $350 \nStudents/Registrars: $125

SUMMARY:FPS-T in Eating Disorders with Dr Susan Barnett & Dr Karen Spielman
DESCRIPTION:Learning outcomes: \nBy the end of this program\, participants will be able to: \n\nRecognise a broad range of eating disorder presentations in general practice\nConduct appropriate medical\, psychological and risk assessments for eating disorders\nIdentify red flags and determine when escalation of care is required\nUtilise evidence-based screening tools\, GP Hub resources and Eating Disorder Plans appropriately\nMatch evidence-based therapies to different eating disorder presentations and patient needs\nDevelop practical multidisciplinary management plans\, including family and carer involvement\nApply learning from real-world case discussions to everyday GP practice\n\nOverview: \nThese practical\, GP-focused workshop introduces a clear and clinically relevant approach to identifying and managing eating disorders in primary care. Grounded in psychological and trauma-informed principles\, this session explores how eating disorders present across different populations and why they are often missed or misdiagnosed. \nParticipants will build confidence in conducting comprehensive assessments\, recognising key clinical patterns\, and responding appropriately to positive screening results. The modules also outline the GP’s critical role in ongoing care\, including medical monitoring\, therapeutic engagement\, and gaining a broader understanding of the different types of eating disorder therapies available and how to match them for your different patients in a general practice setting. \nDesigned for busy clinicians\, this session emphasises real-world skills\, non-judgmental communication\, and strategies to support early intervention and improved patient outcomes. \nAccreditation: \nThis course has been accredited with both the RACGP & ACRRM for CPD hours. It has also been approved for MH_CPD and FPS_CPD through the GPMHSC. Upon completion\, if you are a member with either college\, you will be awarded 2 Educational Activity hours and 4 Reviewing Performance hours. \nCompletion also enables FREE ANZAED credentialing. \n       \n

SUMMARY:FPS-T in Eating Disorders with Dr Susan Barnett & Dr Karen Spielman
DESCRIPTION:Designed for busy clinicians\, this course is delivered over three consecutive weeks in interactive 2-hour online sessions each Tuesday evening. \nEach session focuses on a dedicated module\, allowing you to build your knowledge and confidence step-by-step\, with time to reflect and apply your learning in practice between sessions: \n• Week 1 (Session 1): Module 1: Tues 02 Jun 2026 @7:00pm – 9:00pm\n• Week 2 (Session 2): Module 2: Tues 09 Jun 2026 @7:00pm – 9:00pm\n• Week 3 (Session 3): Module 3: Tues 16 Jun 2026 @7:00pm – 9:00pm \nThis flexible\, spaced learning approach supports practical skill development and meaningful integration into everyday general practice. \nLearning outcomes: \nBy the end of this program\, participants will be able to: \n\nRecognise a broad range of eating disorder presentations in general practice\nConduct appropriate medical\, psychological and risk assessments for eating disorders\nIdentify red flags and determine when escalation of care is required\nUtilise evidence-based screening tools\, GP Hub resources and Eating Disorder Plans appropriately\nMatch evidence-based therapies to different eating disorder presentations and patient needs\nDevelop practical multidisciplinary management plans\, including family and carer involvement\nApply learning from real-world case discussions to everyday GP practice\n\nOverview: \nThese practical\, GP-focused modules introduce a clear and clinically relevant approach to identifying and managing eating disorders in primary care.

SUMMARY:Webinar: First principles of chronic pain with Dr Anne Saunders
DESCRIPTION:Date: Tuesday 19th May 2026 \nTime: 7:30pm – 9:00pm AEST \nVenue: Zoom \nContact Phone: 08 7557 9556 \nContact Email: education@aspm.org.au \n  \nSession overview: \nThis webinar will provide GPs with a practical introduction to the first principles of chronic pain management in general practice. Participants will explore how to define and diagnose chronic pain\, assess opioid use through opioid equivalent dosing\, and develop an initial patient-centered pain management plan.
