Psychosocial Care - Enhancing Medical Care to be Psychologically Informed
May 13, 2024

In anticipation of the 2024 ECRD conference in Brussels, our CEO Lucy McKay and CEO of RareMindsUK Kim Winter took part in this podcast to spark your curiosity and deepen your understanding of the topics that will be explored during their panel 'No Health Without Mental Health! Let's co-create a mentally healthy toolkit.'

This week is European Mental Health Week and this session will start a co-creation process to develop a new Mentally Healthy Toolkit for the rare disease community, by exploring the existing best practices and tools that can be drawn on and scaled to form the basis for a new Toolkit. As well as providing concrete policy solutions that can support the implementation of the UN commitment into national healthcare systems.

Lucy will be speaking at the Opening Plenary at 8.30am (BST) and again for her mental health panel at 1pm (BST)

ECRD takes place between the 15-16th of May 2024. All tickets for the event are sold out in person, but you can buy tickets to watch online here - https://www.rare-diseases.eu/register/
