Gambling minds have two upcoming education sessions that are to be hosted by The Centre for Mental Health Learning (CMHL). The sessions are to be held in October prior and during Gambling Harm Awareness Week (17th-23rd October).
Session 1
A one-hour introductory virtual education session outlining the role of the Gambling Minds service at Alfred Health and our work with people with gambling disorders. We will explore gambling diagnostic criteria, public health harms and strategies we can employ in our roles as mental health clinicians to improve our response. We will also seek to have a consumer representative share their story.
