Wednesday, September 30, 2020 | 7:00 - 9:00 PM Program Overview You are doing everything necessary to stay up-to-date with the clinical aspects of psychiatric care but sometimes it’s those things not directly related to treatment that can pose the greatest risks. In this program, we will take a “shallow dive” into topics about which questions are frequently posed to our Risk Management Consultation Service.
