Recorded on July 28, 2022
Presented by Shelby Forbes, Ph.D.
Each individual session, when attended in its entirety, offers 1.5 CEs for Psychologists.
Workshop Description:
Operating from the premise that effective patient-provider communication is essential to the efficacy of healthrelated interventions, this multi-part presentation will cover a variety of topics in health communication.
The second part of this four-part series covers the topic of organizational health communication. This part of the presentation focuses on how organizational dynamics and structures influence the provision of patient care. More specifically, here we will consider how institutional practices such as the transfer of care, institutional hierarchies, and interactions that occur “front stage” and “back stage” both facilitate and inhibit healthcare delivery.
Learning Objectives:
After attending this advanced-level program, participants will be able to:
Part 2:
- Identify common areas of miscommunication amongst providers (e.g., during handoffs and transfer of care), thus learning to avoid these missteps in their own practice.
- Identify how organizational hierarchies characteristic of medicine and higher education work against proper care, leading to mistakes and misdiagnoses.
Program Standards and Goals:
This program meets APA’s continuing education Standard 1.1: Program content focuses on application of psychological assessment and/or intervention methods that have overall consistent and credible empirical support in the contemporary peer reviewed scientific literature beyond those publications and other types of communications devoted primarily to the promotion of the approach.
This program meets APA’s continuing education Goal 2: Program will enable psychologists to keep pace with the most current scientific evidence regarding assessment, prevention, intervention, and/or education as well as important relevant legal, statutory, leadership, or regulatory issues.
