HELPDOC
Our Aim
To provide the first aid as an interventional act and form a safety net, until problems can be addressed empathically and solutions / resolutions made available to the needy.
To be a “ friend” in the darkest moments without being judgmental.
To offer a lifeline to those in need of help without fear or favour.
Who will be the target clients
All doctors
The initial target aimed at is the junior doctor groups who seem to be going through several rough patches of late. Recent press reports have identified harassment, bullying, victimisation and exploitation by working too many hours. Whilst this may be the prime and immediate objective, the team expects to extend this service to other areas in time to come such as supporting long term illness, addictions, emotional disorders etc.
Services will be developed as the demand grows.
The TASKFORCE with the support of MMA is an interface where doctors’ problems can be analysed and major concerns be brought to the relevant authorities for assistance in resolving some of the common denominators.
HELPDOC is a conduit for resolving conflicts without going through red tape measures and resolutions / recommendations based on evidence and facts.
Plan of Delivery
HELPDOC TEAM works through the MMA HQ office in KL. The service from HELPDOC will be active from HQ as first point of contact during office hours and Information will be passed on to coordinator of HELPDOC for further action.
HELPDOC will make contact with the branch chairmen to disseminate this information actively to its members.
HELPDOC will identify specific individuals in each state to act as an anchor person for the TEAM.
HELPDOC will identify each training hospital and have a representative from each hospital.
