Description

Healthcare professionals in all settings work regularly with patients living with mental health conditions. There is an unmet need for relevant training in behavioral health skills, at a time when these skills are more vital than ever. In these interactive live webinars, experts in behavioral health provide training in de-escalation, suicide prevention, ethical and cultural considerations in mental health, and other skills for use in both inpatient and outpatient settings.

This will be a 3-part series of live webinars, which will be 4-5 hours apiece. Join us for each session at $179, or all 3 sessions for $499!

These Behavioral Health Webinars are designed for healthcare workers in all settings who want to increase their skills in de-escalation, creating a safe environment, managing and recognizing common psychiatric diagnoses, and much more! The first live webinar will take place on Friday, January 13th, and will continue every other month after that.
