Facilitating Groups
Event description
These are free events designed for members of the public clinical mental health workforce in Victoria, (staff employed at Area Mental Health Services, Forensicare or mental health staff from RCH) and lived experience workforces (LEW) working in either public clinical or community mental health state-funded roles. Other workforce in partner organisations, such as AOD organisations or ACCHOs, may sometimes be eligible.
This training aligns to Capability 10 (Delivering compassionate care, support and treatment) of the Victorian Mental Health & Wellbeing Workforce Capability Framework.
This experiential workshop guides participants through the different aspect of running groups. We unpack the challenges and opportunities that occur when people come together, and explore the impact of our values and judgements when facilitating a group. We then practice planning and delivering groups while actively reflecting along the way.
This workshop has been a collaboration utilising the wisdom from members of the consumer workforce, cross-disciplines, and the Centre for Mental Health Nursing.
The training will be delivered in-person in the training facilities at Orygen Youth Health, 35 Poplar Road, Parkville (LG.303 Colonial Innovation Space #2).
