Wellbeing SIG

If you require immediate support, please call Converge International on 1300 687 327 in Australia or 0800 666 367 in New Zealand, and identify yourself as an ANZCA fellow, trainee or SIMG.

The aim of the Wellbeing SIG is to promote personal wellbeing and to heighten awareness of wellbeing issues in anaesthetists and pain medicine specialists. The group is an informative, educative and referral group; it has no therapeutic role.

The Wellbeing SIG runs sessions at various annual meetings including the Combined SIG meeting, ANZCA Annual Scientific Meeting and Australian Society of Anaesthetists Annual Scientific Congress. This provides an opportunity to share new research and data on Australian and New Zealand anaesthetists, discuss important and topical issues and to network with peers. In addition, members of the executive will often present at other wellbeing-related events and liaison with other professional bodies.

Wellbeing SIG resource documents

Please visit the Wellbeing SIG LibGuide to access a wide range of wellbeing resources, including the resource documents, the Peer Group Guide, ASA articles, journal articles, apps, publications, and podcasts.

If you would like to create a resource document, please view the resource document submission guidelines. If you would like access to an archived resource document, please contact the Senior Events Officer.
