Facilitated by Nina Halstead

We all see patients on their worst days, often in the aftermath of trauma, disaster, and chaos. While we are taught the skills to ensure physical safety in the moment, often times there are other needs that go unaddressed. In this course you will gain an understanding of how to identify when a patient is in crisis and learn practical skills to help patients navigate personal crisis situations safely and effectively.
