The objective of this study was to explore how a support group in Victoria, Australia, that has been set up for doctors and medical students with substance use disorders is perceived by group members.
Past and present participants were surveyed anonymously regarding their attitudes to the group and its role in their recovery.
Respondents overwhelmingly valued the support group, seeing it as an integral and essential part of their recovery and on-going health.
It is recommended that such support groups for doctors who have substance use disorders be more widely available in jurisdictions other than Victoria.
本研究的目的是探讨澳大利亚维多利亚州一个为患有物质使用障碍的医生和医学生设立的支持小组在小组成员眼中是如何被看待的。
对过去和现在的参与者进行了匿名调查，询问他们对该小组的态度及其在他们康复过程中的作用。
受访者高度重视这个支持小组，将其视为他们康复及持续健康不可或缺且至关重要的一部分。
建议在维多利亚州以外的司法管辖区更广泛地设立针对患有物质使用障碍医生的此类支持小组。
