This webinar addresses the critical need for general practitioners (GPs) to effectively manage mental health issues in older adults, specifically focusing on anxiety and depression. As the population ages, GPs are increasingly encountering older patients with complex mental health needs. The holistic approach presented in this webinar aligns with the comprehensive care model essential in general practice. It will equip GPs with the knowledge and skills to provide more compassionate and effective care to older patients struggling with anxiety and depression, and address the broader goal of improving mental health outcomes and quality of life for the aging population in primary care settings.

This activity is highly relevant for GPs, as it directly addresses the critical gap in the appropriate use of oral anticoagulants for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation (AF)—a common and high-impact condition in general practice. With AF contributing to nearly 10% of all deaths in Australia and its prevalence rising, GPs play a pivotal role in reducing AF-related stroke risk through evidence-based anticoagulation management. Despite strong clinical guidelines, many high-risk patients remain undertreated due to concerns over bleeding risk and suboptimal prescribing practices. This activity equips GPs with practical, audit-driven insights to optimise anticoagulant use, ensuring their decisions align with best-practice recommendations. Through engagement with real-world data and interactive education, GPs will enhance their ability to balance stroke prevention with bleeding risks, ultimately improving patient outcomes and reducing the public health burden of AF-related strokes.
