We are pleased to host our first highly acclaimed rural retreats in Darwin and Alice Springs in 2025, where we invite rural / remote doctors from across the Northern Territory to attend in May and August.
These events are supported by a Grant from the NT phn and we have engaged original facilitator Mr Hugh Kearns from ThinkWell to lead the workshops.
The program has been rigorously evaluated in Adelaide and the results show that over 90% of rural doctors who have attended have made significant and lasting changes in their life.
Rural & Remote Doctors attending this Retreat will:
- discover that they have choices which ultimately influence their quality of life
- make decisions about what they would like to change to improve their lives as rural GPs
- develop strategies (including time management, communication, self-talk, self-awareness, saying no, dealing with -perfectionism etc) to assist with change
- deal with obstacles or barriers to change, including internal (self-talk, high expectations, perfectionism) and external (workload, others’ demands, lack of resources, financial and family pressures) barriers
- network with other rural / remote doctors and share strategies for dealing with the challenges of rural practice
