Dr. Deborah Weidner presented her work on mental health training for frontline healthcare workers in Gaza, based on sessions delivered at Nasser Hospital in August 2024. The presentation examined how Psychological First Aid and suicidality training were retained and applied in an active conflict setting.
Findings highlighted increased confidence among participants alongside persistent barriers to implementation, including resource limitations and structural constraints. The session emphasized the importance of integrated, team-based approaches to mental health care in high-intensity environments.
