NurseTalk - Vaping: Risks, rules and harm reduction strategies

Posted Wednesday 25 December 2024 | Australian Primary Health Care Nurses Association (APNA)

Sinking its hooks in across generations, vaping is increasingly popular across all age groups. In teens, the growth of its use is exponential.

Join us face-to-face at our NurseTalk locations across the country to hear all about why so many Australians are becoming addicted to vaping. We’ll explore the history, how the devices work, the chemicals, and what we know about adverse health effects.

Come and learn from one of Australia's top respiratory experts and hear the latest research on the health effects of vaping, the potential for addiction and practical harm reduction strategies for patients of all ages.

This is an important topic for all nurses to understand. Vaping has the potential to leave a substantial adverse health legacy, for generations to come. This is a must-attend talk, so you can be informed on the latest developments in the hazy world of vaping. 

This event is sponsored by Northern Queensland Primary Health Network (NQPHN) and is FREE for nurses working in General Practice and/or Primary Care Facilities in the NQPHN catchment. It's a great way for nurses to network, learn, discuss, and socailise. 

RSVP date of 2pm, Wednesday 8 March 2023.
