Gambling harm awareness training for General Practitioners – Part 2

from RACGP - The GP Edition Hosted by RACGP - The GP Edition

Gambling can have significant impacts on health and wellbeing. It can cause significant financial, health, relationship, education and employment, and social and psychological harm. It is estimated that for every person experiencing problems with gambling, six other people are affected. In this podcast Dr Hester Wilson, GP and Addiction Specialist, and Dr Kate Fennessy, Senior Clinical Psychologist, run through a range of case scenarios and discuss ways to approach these in the general practice setting. Resources: GPs can encourage patients to visit the GambleAware website www.gambleaware.nsw.gov.au or call 1800 858 858. GPs can also make a warm referral by contacting a Gamble Aware service directly (patient consent is required) - https://www.gambleaware.nsw.gov.au/i-need-support/i-need-to-talk-to-someone/is-there-support-near-me Brief biosocial gambling screen https://www.icrg.org/resources/brief-biosocial-gambling-screen
