Veterinarians have one of the highest rates of suicide - up to four-times that of the general population, and two-times that of other health professionals. In Australia we lose one veterinarian to suicide around every 12 weeks. Sadly though, it is not just our veterinarians at risk - other veterinary and animal workers are also susceptible.

This webinar is facilitated by Dr Nadine Hamilton, a leading global authority on veterinary wellbeing. Dr Hamilton will discuss the five main factors contributing to the disproportionate rate of suicide in the veterinary profession, as well as what is being done to address it.
