overview

The aim of the presentation is to educate Psychologists on the WorkSafe system.  Many injured workers struggle with the processes associated with having a WorkSafe claim, a Psychologist who understands the system is able to depersonalize difficulties and normalize their client’s experiences.  Further, understanding the system assists when liaising with stakeholders, and in providing information to clients on more effective interaction with the system. Jane will also discuss the purpose of the Clinical Panel and Clinical Panel reviews and the Clinical Framework for the Delivery of Health Services.
