I encourage all my fellow healthcare professionals to make their mental health a priority. Remember, you can’t pour from an empty cup. Take care of yourself too. #PractitionerHealth#MentalHealthAwareness
This program has made me realize that seeking help is not a sign of weakness, but a sign of strength. And it’s okay for us, as healthcare professionals, to ask for help. We’re not alone. #MentalHealthAwareness#PractitionerHealth
The Practitioner Health Program couldn’t have come at a better time. Locally, either with colleagues or otherwise mental health support couldn’t be guaranteed, so having this resource is a true blessing. #PractitionerHealth#MentalHealthSupport
With the physical injuries i sustained, I recently turned to the Practitioner Health Program, an initiative developed by @ClareGerada, that offers mental health support for healthcare professionals. It’s been an invaluable resource in my life. #PractitionerHealth
As a healthcare professional, I have always been passionate about ensuring the well-being of others. But, it’s crucial to recognize that we also need to take care of our mental health. #PractitionerHealth#MentalHealth

For every year you go without prioritising your happiness, health and wealth.
You get a year closer to one (or all) of those things crashing and burning.
