This PDL podcast seeks to demystify a stressful subject: what can pharmacists do when they receive a regulatory notification? Ahpra acting executive director of Health Regulation, Monica Lambley; PDL lead pharmacist education and professional development and host of the Brisk Ready Podcast Amy Minion; and PDL Professional Officer and chair of the Victorian Local Advisory Committee Naomi Lim discuss how important it is to understand the notification process. Minion says that “in this episode, we'll break down what a regulatory notification is and what it isn't,” as well as some common reasons why notifications are made – and tips for navigating the process. And does a notification always mean that a pharmacist has made an error, or something has gone wrong? PDL takes an in-depth look… Highlights include: 02:36 – What is a notification? 03:29 – Statistics on notifications 04:24 – “The first struggle is almost always emotional.” 06:36 – What a notification doesn't mean 07:26 – What regulators are looking for in their assessment of a notification 08:52 – “This is a learning.” 10:39 – When a pharmacist reaches out to PDL 12:35 – How do practitioners show accountability and insight? 13:49 – Looking after your own wellbeing 16:24 – Why notifications do not define a practitioner 18:12 – “A really high proportion of the information that we receive relates to a miscommunication or a misunderstanding.” 20:09 – Staying ahead of risk 22:47 – The importance of seeking information You can access the full transcript of this podcast here.

Une sage-femme australienne dénoncée. Pas pour une erreur médicale. Pas pour une faute professionnelle. Pour avoir dit : "Si tout va bien, tu n'as pas besoin d'un obstétricien."Dans cet épisode, je te raconte l'histoire de Mélanie Jackson, sage-femme australienne et podcasteuse (The Great Birth Rebellion), qui a reçu une plainte de l'ordre australien des sages-femmes (AHPRA) pendant qu'elle était à la Conférence mondiale des sages-femmes au Portugal. Sa "faute" ? Avoir défini son propre métier.Ce cas, il n'est pas australien. Il est universel. En Belgique, en France, partout — le système demande encore à des professionnelles formées et expérimentées de justifier leur existence sans médecin. Et cette injonction, elle repose sur une croyance profondément ancrée, socialement acceptée, médicalement entretenue : sans obstétricien présent, ce n'est pas vraiment safe.Aujourd'hui, on la déconstruit.On parle de la définition officielle de la sage-femme selon la Confédération Internationale des Sages-Femmes. Du rôle réel de l'obstétricien — spécialiste de la pathologie, pas gardien de la normalité. De ce que "escalader si nécessaire" veut vraiment dire. Et de ce que ça change concrètement à La Bulle, ma maison de naissance en Belgique.
Complications are one of the biggest sources of stress in aesthetic practice, not just because of the clinical risk, but because of what happens in the hours and days that follow. In this second instalment of a two-part series on The Aesthetic Shift podcast, NP Kelly Beasy is joined again by solicitor and former AHPRA investigator David Gardner to unpack what actually protects clinicians when things go wrong. What stands out in this conversation is how often the greatest risk doesn't come from the complication itself, but from what happens next: how clinicians think, document, communicate, and escalate in real time. This episode explores the emotional pattern many practitioners experience, and how that can influence decision-making in the first critical hours. The discussion focuses on the immediate post-complication window: What should be documented straight away Language that can unintentionally create medicolegal vulnerability When apology is appropriate, and how to approach it safely Clear triggers for escalation or referral When to involve your MDO without delay A key focus is what “defensible management” looks like in real-world scenarios, including delayed vascular compromise and unexpected swelling. The conversation also explores what often drives complaints after the initial event is under control, particularly communication breakdowns, documentation gaps, and the amplifying effect of social media. David closes by identifying the most common mistake clinicians make, and what simple system every aesthetic clinic should have in place before anything goes wrong. Complications are part of aesthetic medicine. What protects you is not perfection, but preparation in documentation, escalation, and communication. Tune into the podcast for the full discussion.

A skin check might feel routine, but it's often where small decisions can carry the most risk. In this webinar and Q&A session, David Gardner (solicitor and former AHPRA investigator) offers an inside look at where GPs can feel exposed in everyday skin cancer consultations. Through real-world scenarios, David walks through how seemingly straightforward cases can become more complex from a billing, documentation, and patient expectation perspective. Delivered in collaboration with AHPD, this webinar explores what it means to stay confident and defensible in your day-to-day practice. The session includes Q&A and case discussions.

In aesthetic practice, consent is rarely the issue; it is the quality of that consent that determines whether you are protected if something goes wrong. In this episode of The Aesthetic Shift, NP Kelly Beasy is joined by solicitor and former AHPRA investigator David Gardner to unpack where clinicians are most exposed and what defensible consent really looks like in practice. Why this matters for clinicians Aesthetic complaints rarely come down to technical error alone. More often, they stem from a mismatch between what the patient expected and what was actually documented. This conversation explores why signed consent forms often fall short, how treating patient desire (not disease) shifts your risk profile, and what “informed consent” really means from a regulatory perspective. Where clinicians get caught out Common pressure points include vague patient requests, incomplete documentation of expectations, and situations where the clinical outcome is sound but the patient is still dissatisfied. David also shares insights into what holds up when a patient says, “I did not know that could happen,” when to pause or decline treatment, and whether refunds truly reduce risk.

In this episode of RiskBites Dr Annalene Weston is joined by her colleague and fellow dentolegal consultant, Dr Kiran Keshwara, to explore a topic that's becoming increasingly relevant in Australian dental practice.Australia is a rapidly changing and culturally diverse nation. In fact, more than half of our population was either born overseas or has at least one parent who was. That diversity enriches our communities, but it can also present real challenges in clinical settings.These interactions can be complex, nuanced, and at times confusing, particularly when important clinical information, consent, or risk needs to be clearly understood.In this episode, we explore how to navigate language barriers safely, respectfully, and effectively.
It might surprise many of our listeners to learn that compassionate grounds for the early release of superannuation have actually been around for a long time since 1 July 1994, shortly after Australia's modern superannuation system was introduced.And since 1 July 2018, it's the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) that has been responsible for approving these applications.This topic has been attracting a lot of attention lately, and not always for the right reasons. Heightened media coverage, combined with some unfortunate commentary, has led to questions being raised about the integrity of our profession. In this episode of RiskBites, we unpack what's really going on. We separate fact from fiction, talk through what compassionate release actually involves, and share practical guidance for navigating an area that's now under close scrutiny. The goal is simple: to help our members feel informed, confident, and clear about their responsibilities in a rapidly evolving space.

If you've ever felt unsafe speaking up, shrunk your practice to avoid regulatory scrutiny, or wondered if the system designed to protect you is actually harming you—this conversation will validate everything you've been feeling but haven't said out loud.I'm speaking with Dr. Julie Sladden, a medical doctor, writer, and advocate who walked away from clinical practice, handed in her medical license, and became one of Australia's most vocal advocates for practitioner wellbeing and regulatory reform. You might know her from The Spectator, The Daily Declaration, and as co-founder of Australians for Science and Freedom.HERE ARE THE KEY INSIGHTS:1️⃣ The Public Protection Paradox – By silencing and harming doctors, regulatory bodies effectively harm the public. When practitioners are too afraid to speak or are strategically planning their exit from clinical work, patients lose. Workforce wellbeing isn't separate from patient care—it's the foundation of it.2️⃣ The Line in the Sand – Julie shares the moment she realized she couldn't stay silent. She had three choices: walk away quietly, continue practicing and hope she didn't get caught, or close her practice publicly and speak out. She chose the latter, despite the financial devastation (her family income halved overnight) and fear of regulatory retaliation.3️⃣ The Culture of Fear – We dive into how practitioners are shrinking their practices, deregistering entirely, and self-censoring out of fear. Julie shares why she ultimately surrendered her medical license—she realized AHPRA would likely come after her, and she didn't have capacity to fight that battle while doing advocacy work.4️⃣ Finding Your Tribe & Rebuilding Healthcare – Julie discusses the critical importance of community. After mandates were announced, she connected with 500 practitioners who were thinking the same way. She also shares her vision for a better system: grassroots health education, protecting social connections, and shifting from sick care to true preventative care.RESOURCES:* Australians for Science and Freedom: scienceandfreedom.org* The Collective Waitlist: therapistsrising.com/collective* Instagram: @dr.hayleykellyA NOTE FROM HAYLEY:This episode might be controversial. I knew that going in. But I believe we're at a point where the cost of silence is higher than the cost of speaking up. Practitioners are burnt out, shutting down, deregistering, and strategically planning their exits from clinical work. That's not a retention problem—that's a system problem.You don't have to agree with every position Julie holds. I don't either. But this conversation isn't about ideology. It's about the system we're all practicing inside, the weight it places on us, and what it costs to work within structures that often feel opaque, punitive, and misaligned with actual care.If even our most capable, thoughtful practitioners are planning their exit, something needs to change. And change starts with conversation.Thank you for listening with curiosity, compassion, and courage.SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW:If this episode showed you what's possible when you give yourself permission to build differently—or inspired you to rethink what scaling could look like in your practice—please take a moment to subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts!

In this episode, I sit down with Philip Armstrong, CEO of the Vocational Mental Health Professionals Association of Australia (VMHPAA), to unpack the National Standards for Counsellors and Psychotherapists — what's true, what's still uncertain, and what it all means for your private practice. If you've felt confused or anxious about what these standards might mean for you as a counsellor, psychotherapist, or student — you're not alone. In this conversation, we explore the facts behind the draft, the myths circulating in online communities, and the practical implications for vocational and higher-education qualified practitioners. Philip clarifies the differences between licensing, registration, and endorsement, and together we talk through why it's not yet official, how the process works, and where counsellors' voices are needed most. You'll hear: (00:37) Introduction to Philip Armstrong and the VMHPAA (01:06) What's really happening with the “official” national standards (02:50) The consultation process and why response rates matter (08:47) What a counselling license is and isn't (15:35) Where graduate diplomas fit in (and where they don't) (17:43) Supervision hours and how they may change (20:28) Who decides what's “low-risk” counselling? (26:36) Is “counsellor” a protected title under the new standards? (32:44) How licensing, endorsement, and accreditation all differ (40:05) The future for diploma-qualified counsellors and supervisors (45:15) Will these standards affect your ability to practice privately? (53:11) What “conditional licensing” really means (56:55) Why the current draft can't yet be endorsed (1:02:09) What changes the department needs to make next (1:16:18) How counsellors can stay informed and get involved If you're a counsellor, psychotherapist, psychologist, or social worker in Australia trying to make sense of the evolving standards, this episode will help you understand the facts, stay calm, and know exactly where your professional voice matters.

In this episode, I'm sitting down with the bold, brilliant, and whip-smart Laura Lee - a psychologist, sexologist, coach, and the founder of Blue Space Psychology - to dive into what it actually takes to talk about sex online as a regulated health professional.Laura's work lives at the intersection of mental health, sex, and relationships. And let's just say, that combo can light up the AHPRA risk radar faster than you can say “shadowban.” So how do you balance professional responsibility with authentic, sex-positive content creation? How do you hold ethical boundaries and your own truth?That's exactly what we unpack in this episode.Whether you're a therapist craving more freedom in your content, a sexologist juggling regulation and realness, or someone feeling stifled by the blurry lines of online expression — this conversation will meet you right where you are.Here's what we cover in this episode:What happens when “taboo” meets the algorithm — and how that impacts your message, reach, and reputation.Why your clinical training may actually get in the way when it comes to talking about sex in public forums.How to reframe risk — and navigate fear of being misunderstood, reported, or reprimanded.Boundaries vs Censorship — how to show up with clarity and care, without watering down your values.The “ick” of performative content — and how to stay grounded in your voice, not the algorithm.3 Powerful Takeaways:1. Ethics aren't the enemy of expression.You can hold professional responsibility and be a full human online. It just takes intention, reflection, and sometimes — community.2. Shame thrives in silence — especially around sex.By showing up with grounded, nuanced content, you're modelling the exact safety you want your clients to feel. Your content can be part of the healing.3. General doesn't mean generic.You don't need to share client stories or deeply personal experiences to be impactful. Speaking to themes, struggles, and questions is often more powerful — and way more sustainable.
With the new guidelines for health practitioners who advertise non-surgical cosmetic procedures coming into effect on the 2nd of September 2025, now is the perfect time to review and reflect upon some of the changes. In this episode of RiskBites Dr Simon Parsons and Dr Colm Harney, dentolegal consultants at Dental Protection discuss the key aspects of this guidance in addition to teasing out some of the important changes in store for practitioners.
In our April edition of risk bites pertaining to Cosmetics in Dentistry, Dr Colm Harney flagged the intention of Ahpra to release new resources and guidelines for registered practitioners undertaking and advertising non-surgical cosmetic procedures.Well, that time is upon us and as of the 2nd of September 2025 the new guidelines will come into effect. Listen is as Colm steps through the key points of interest, in linear order of appearance in the document, so we would encourage you to grab your copy and follow along.

Advertising clinical procedures can be a minefield, largely due to the rapid adoption of social media by many and the unintended consequences that have arisen from this. In this episode of RiskBites Dr Simon Parsons speaks with fellow dentolegal consultant Dr Kiran Keshwara about the Ahpra guidance and Guidelines for advertising a regulated health service. However, it's important to note that this guidance will be supplemented with ‘The guidance for registered health practitioners who perform and who advertise non-surgical cosmetic procedures', which will be the point of discussion in our September podcasts and webinars
In this Healthed lecture, David Gardner outlines the major risks for healthcare practitioners who engage with social media, even in a non-professional capacity. Apparently, the reality is, anything posted online should be considered permanent and public and needs to uphold a standard of conduct that is consistent with professional standards - even if it is discussing de-identified patients or personal opinions. A truly enlightening and slightly frightening presentation. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You've created an incredible program. You have valuable insights to share. You know your work could help so many people.But every time you go to hit 'publish' on that post about your offer, you freeze.What if someone reports me? What if I say the wrong thing?

Almost every therapist I work with struggles with visibility fear — especially when they're moving beyond traditional therapy into coaching, online programs, or digital offerings.Today, I'm sharing the exact 3-step framework I use with therapists to help them stay visible online without compromising their safety, values, or professional registration.This isn't about throwing caution to the wind. It's about building clarity and courage so you can show up authentically while staying compliant and confident.In this episode, I share:Why visibility fear is actually your nervous system trying to protect you (and why hiding doesn't serve anyone)The Visibility Safety Ladder Framework: 3 simple steps to post with confidenceHow to ground your intention before writing any contentThe hierarchy of safety in content types (stories vs. advice, experience vs. instruction)Visibility anchors: how to help your audience know which professional hat you're wearingReal examples of safe vs. risky language when promoting your work onlineWhy ambiguity breeds anxiety (for you and your readers)One simple action step to practice safer visibility this weekBottom Line: Your voice matters, your work matters, and there are people who need to hear exactly what you have to say. Don't let fear keep them from finding you.
Dental Therapists, Dental Hygienist and Oral Health Therapists continue to receive the highest proportion of complaints related to scope of practice which is likely a reflection of how these roles have evolved over time, often leading to confusion, misunderstanding or lack of awareness.In this episode of RiskBites, Dr Annalene Weston speaks with Mrs Kristin Trafford-Wiezel, a case manager at Dental Protection and OHT, about the changes that have shaped these roles, what they mean for the profession today, and how the guidelines and principles of scope and independent practice apply across all divisions of dentistry.Kristin also shares a case featured in our 2024 Sliding Doors webinar: Who's Driving the Bus?

They do not replace our regular Friday podcasts and will be titled differently to help differentiate them. Chapter 3 of our Industry Updates hosted Jason McHeyzer, National Director of AHPRA (Australian Health Practitioner Regulatory Agency). With regulations very much in the Australian headlines yet again, we delve into the complexities of regulation within the cosmetic industry. We aim to clear up the confusion surrounding AHPRA's role and its efforts to ensure a safe and fair practice environment - for both our patients and the practitioners. Jason elaborates on the balance between patient safety and ethical practice. We get the regulators perspective on what sparked their clamp down on cosmetic surgery and with it, non-surgical cosmetic treatments. The discussion also covers the process of handling complaints behind the scenes, the importance of practitioner competence, and we briefly touch on future pending regulations on cosmetic injectables later this year.

Today on the show I speak my good friend and now ex-midwife Norafiah Lever. Norafiah is a picture of integrity and vibrancy. She used to tell me every year that she questioned herself each time she went to renew her registration. Could she still continue to work in the system that was so egregious to women. Despite working with the guidelines of private practice, the reporting to AHPRA by other professionals took its toll, and she finally de-registered herself voluntarily. She does not believe as a midwife that you can truly ‘be with woman' when theres a conflict of allegiance. Norafiah and I have such a good time on this podcast, having so many laughs and getting all passionate - talking about birth, women's rights and of course spirituality.
