Self-care and Wellbeing Workshops
Our flexible, tailored resilience-building workshops teach key skills so that remote health professionals can improve their own wellbeing and community mental health.
CRANAplus provides free, flexible mental health and wellbeing workshops to rural and remote health workplaces throughout Australia. Our workshops are designed to help your team meet the challenges of providing health care in their unique setting. They can be delivered in person or online and are customised to meet your organisation’s needs. For example, we regularly tailor our workshops to support workplaces in regions affected by natural disasters including drought, bushfire, or flood.
One of our most popular sessions is the 30-minute Wellbeing Reset. This particular workshop acknowledges the difficulty of balancing the demands of working as a health professional with those of family and community; and that sometimes the last person we care for is ourselves, even though self care is essential to staying well. It provides participants with the opportunity to check-in with themselves and outlines steps they can take to promote their own wellbeing.
Other workshop topics include:
- Effects of trauma and long-term stress, common reactions and helpful responses
- Strategies to reduce prolonged stress and enhance self care
- Managing wellbeing and vicarious trauma
- Crucial conversations – tips on engaging people who may need support
