Summary:

This workshop will provide Mental Health providers that are not medical in training with a basic understanding of the medications that are commonly prescribed to patients in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. Content will cover common indications, common dosages, side effects that may be seen, and some of the interactions that may occur and should be monitored for. This is not intended to be an exhaustive understanding of medications, and their functions, rather it will be an overview for nonmedical clinicians. The goal is to help the nonmedical provider to better understand the medication aspects of care for their patients.

Learning objectives:

1) After this lecture, attendees will have a basic knowledge of common psychiatric medications, dosages, and potential problems
2)  Attendees will better understand the role that medication plays in the care of their patients.

Summary:

As part of its commitment to the national Zero Suicide Initiative, Parkside is committed to using evidence-based, best-practice tools for treatment of suicide. Cultural competency has been a core value we have had to learn in training as clinicians. Cultural humility takes a more authentic approach to how and why we need to be more culturally humble as compared to competency. Cultural humility also plays a role in suicide and suicide prevention. Another theory of cultural sensitivity to suicide and suicide risk plays a key role in understanding the differences between culture and ethnicity.

Learning objectives:

1) To understand the differences between cultural humility and cultural competence in suicide risk.

2) To explore ethnic and cultural differences in approaches to suicide and the place of cultural humility within the scope of practice.

Summary:

As part of its commitment to the national Zero Suicide Initiative, Parkside is committed to using evidence-based, best-practice tools for treatment of suicide. To meet this standard, all Parkside clinicians are trained in use of the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) assessment tool, Stanley-Brown safety planning intervention, and Counseling on Access to Lethal Means (CALM).

Zero Suicide training standards call for annual refresher training in an organization’s suicide assessment and treatment methods. This training provides a review of the C-SSRS assessment tool, Stanley-Brown safety planning intervention, and CALM interventions. The presenter will discuss Parkside-specific issues that have been identified through record reviews. Clinicians will be provided an opportunity to discuss their experiences with the methods and ask questions.

Learning objectives:

1) Clinicians will understand the dynamics of suicide risk; specifically, how failed belongingness, perceived burdensomeness, and learned fearlessness interact to create suicide risk.
2) Clinicians will understand how to use the C-SSRS assessment tool to develop an accurate picture of a patient’s suicide risk.
3) Clinicians will understand use of the Stanley-Brown safety planning intervention and CALM interventions.

Summary:

Due to advances in neuroscience research, the field of clinical psychology has substantially progressed in its understanding of the neural bases of addiction, trauma, and psychotherapy. Basic knowledge of the neuroscience underlying psychotherapeutic approaches, as well as the neural profiles of mental illness (such as addiction and trauma), allow clinicians to understand the mechanisms of mental health treatment. An understanding of these mechanisms helps psychologists and other mental health professionals select effective, efficient techniques that aim to alter specific brain activation and connectivity for recovery. This seminar, led by clinical expert Dr. Jennifer Sweeton, shares up-to-date research on the neuroscience of trauma, addiction, and medical illness, and teaches highly effective psychotherapy techniques clinicians can begin using tomorrow to help clients recover.

Learning objectives:

1. Name at least 4 key brain structures involved in addiction and trauma.
2. Learn and practice at least two brain-changing techniques that reduce trauma symptoms.
3. Learn and practice at least two brain-changing techniques that can help clients manage addiction.
4. Identify at least one evidence-based therapy approach for dual diagnosis treatments.
5. Define “prodependence” and explain why this can be a helpful conceptualization for clients and their family members.
6. Name two ways in which trauma affects a developing brain differently than an adult brain.
7. Describe at least one unique consideration that can make treating adolescents with trauma challenging.
