In this episode of the Care to Learn Podcast, we sit down with Geoff Ahern, a senior mental health clinician and educator. Geoff speaks to us about the impact of unconscious bias in mental health, why taking the time to listen to each individual’s story is vital, and how mental health clinicians are increasingly involving the patient and their families in their care.
Geoff splits his time between responding to mental health emergencies with Victoria Police, and educating health professionals and members of the community about mental health, substance use and addiction.
In today’s episode we’ll discuss:
– Why all clinicians in mental health must learn to leave their unconscious biases at the door and start and finish with the individual client’s story;
– How workplaces can develop a positive culture of learning from the inside; and
– Why we, as health professionals, must learn to treat ourselves and each other with respect.
