Description du cours

Depression (MDD*) can significantly affect an individual’s health, leading to social and occupational impairment, diminished self-management of comorbidities, diminished quality of life, and an elevated risk of death by suicide. This program supports clinicians in effectively identifying and managing depression in their patients.

The program will review the signs and symptoms of depression, discuss a range of treatment options, including both pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches. By the end of the session, clinicians will be better prepared to deliver comprehensive and effective care to patients with depression.
