Psychiatric Advance Directives: A Compelling Tool to Support Crisis Care
Friday | June 28, 2019 | 12:00 – 1:00 p.m. ET
This free webinar is ideal for all mental health clinicians across various practice settings.
Learn all about Psychiatric Advance Directives (PADs), a very important topic if you work with individuals who have serious mental illness (SMI). Twenty-seven states have enacted statutes supporting these directives.
The discussion in this webinar highlights the potential benefits associated with the use of PADs. It also uncovers resources to aid in implementation. This is critical for all mental health clinicians, as implementation of laws around PADs is a federal requirement for mental health facilities and clinics that receive federal funding.
To help you apply this knowledge in your practice, the webinar focuses on:
- Background information on the concept of PADs
- Insights on potential benefits and resources to aid in implementation
- Approaches to overcome barriers to implementation
Earn up to 1.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™, 1.0 CE credit for psychologists, and up to 1.0 contact hour of nursing continuing education.
