Mental Health



From Beyond Blue, this is Not Alone. A podcast where everyday Australians talk about their mental health journey to help you with yours.

The Mental Health Podcasts series is a joint Communities of Practice initiative between nurse leaders from SA Health and academics from the University of South Australia’s Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Research Group. It is designed to share fresh thinking in contemporary mental health practice and will involve hearing the voices of consumers, carers, practitioners and policy makers revealing what they think, feel, say and do to achieve best practice. New podcasts will be available approximately every two months.

Our podcasts each tackle an important mental health topic and provide insight and expert knowledge from and for health professionals.
