National Doctors Health & Wellbeing

The mental health and wellbeing of the medical profession is a national priority. Improving the wellbeing of doctors and medical students is a key enabler of quality patient care and healthier communities.

Drs4Drs convened the National Doctors Health & Wellbeing Leadership Alliance with the purpose of facilitating coordinated action across the medical sector on the Every Doctor, Every Setting Framework.

The National Framework: Every Doctor, Every Setting was developed with the support of medical leaders in Australia. Based on the best available evidence and advice from doctors, doctors-in-training, medical students, mental health and suicide prevention experts and other key stakeholders, the Framework was designed to drive action on the mental health and wellbeing of doctors and medical students across all settings and all stages of career.

You can support Every Doctor, Every Setting: A National Framework as a government body, an organisation or service or as an individual. Sign up and support 

Guided by the Every Doctor, Every Setting Framework, the goal of the National Doctors Health & Wellbeing Leadership Alliance is to define an Action Plan and oversee a national approach to implementation of the Framework across the medical profession and medical workplaces, and to advocate for systemic change to improve the health and wellbeing of doctors and medical students.
