Chronic pain is a prevalent issue among veterans, significantly impacting their quality of life and mental health. General practitioners (GPs) are often the first point of contact for veterans seeking care, positioning them uniquely to address this complex issue. Effective management requires an understanding of the unique challenges veterans face, including the interplay between chronic pain and mental health conditions such as PTSD, anxiety, and depression. GPs need to be equipped with evidence-based strategies to provide holistic, patient-centered care while leveraging multidisciplinary support and available resources.

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) remains an under-recognised condition in Australia, due to the asymptomatic nature of the disease and low awareness among Australians regarding risk factors.CKD is largely preventable because many of its risk factors – high blood pressure, smoking and overweight and obesity – are modifiable.GPs are well placed to undertake identification of high-risk patients, screening, early detection, and appropriate management of kidney disease.Data extraction tools such as Primary Sense and practice clinical information systems can be utilised to identify patient cohorts with known risk factors. This enables screening activities to be undertaken, either in a planned or opportunistic fashion.By completing this activity GPs will learn how practice data can be used to support identifying, recalling, and screening at-risk patients.

RSV andamp; Mothers-to-Be: Safeguarding Infant Health is a 90-minute educational webinar that explores the impact of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) on infants and the crucial role of maternal immunisation in preventing severe RSV-related outcomes during the critical early months of life. Despite RSV being one of the leading causes of bronchiolitis and pneumonia in young children, options for prevention have been limited until now. This session presents new evidence supporting maternal vaccination as an innovative approach to protect newborns by providing passive immunity. The expert-led event features an interdisciplinary panel, including specialists in obstetrics, paediatrics, and infectious diseases, who will discuss RSV epidemiology, the mechanisms of passive immunity transfer, and best practices for integrating RSV vaccination into routine antenatal care. Participants will gain insights into optimising vaccination timing, guidelines, and strategies for year-round implementation, while also addressing the broader implications of RSV prevention on public health.Attendees will leave with practical knowledge and skills to counsel pregnant women on the benefits of RSV vaccination, advocate for maternal vaccination programmes, and implement these preventive measures within their practices, ultimately reducing RSV-related hospitalisations and improving infant health outcomes.This course comprises of 1.5 hours for the webinar masterclass, 1.5 hours of material review and self reflection and five hours of mini audit patient review.
