The annual conference also includes the presentation of the coveted Mental Health Achievement Awards. The Summer Forum in February provides opportunities to learn about mental health hot topics. The Forum format encourages discussion and questions.

The Redbank House Annual Conference 2010

Working in a mental health setting, or with mental health issues, can be tough. Our clients and their families present to us with difficult, sometimes impossible, situations; they look to us with the hope that we might have the solutions that have evaded them. We are asked to tolerate pressures on available resources; use evidence-based interventions appropriate to particular diagnoses; contain and minimise risk; work collaboratively with other services who sometimes hold a very different conceptualisation of the problem; and document all this on special forms in the space provided.
