The second NSW Rehabilitation Psychiatry Network Forum was held on 24 November 2020 in Sydney and chaired by Dr Nick Burns as a totally virtual event.
The purpose of the day was to bring together psychiatrists working in rehabilitation services across the state in order to get to know each other, exchange ideas and build a culture of shared learning. The aim being to form a cohesive network with a strong unified voice.
