NAPT

NSW Australia

The New South Wales Association of Psychiatry Trainees (NAPT) is a not-for-profit organisation which aims to represent, support and advocate for psychiatry trainees in NSW.

Our committee comprises elected NSW psychiatry trainees and includes representatives from each training network and subspecialty advanced training program. We also have liaison members from the Branch Training Committee (BTC), Psychiatry State Training Council (PSTC) and Trainee Representative Committee (TRC).

In 2015 we hosted several events including the Inaugural Welcome Drinks, Academic Symposium, and Advanced Training and Subspecialty Information Night. We hope to bring psychiatry trainees together at a range of social, educational and information events each year.

Professor The Honourable Dame Marie Bashir AD, CVO has honoured NAPT by agreeing to act as our patron.

NAPT is open to all accredited psychiatry trainees in NSW, and other applicants upon consideration by the committee. Membership is free and new members are always welcome. Please sign up on our membership page and join our Facebook group.

First Year Psychiatry Crash Course

Hi everyone!

We’re excited to kick off the new clinical year with the NAPT crash course. We’ll be going through the essential things that you need to know about being a first year psychiatry registrar - at least, everything we can fit in an hour. We will be covering the essential basics, such as:

- the mandatory requirements for passing a term
- ⁠the mental health act
- ⁠an overview of anti-agitation medications
- ⁠Initial ED assessments

This will be the first educational session of the year, with more to come, to help you settle yourself in the first year. So come along, bring any questions, and help shape future educational sessions by telling us what topics you’d like us to cover!
