A Comprehensive Approach to Establishing a Mental Health Practice in LTC Settings

By Joseph M. Casciani, PhD



Length: 16 page(s)

CE Credits: 1.00 credit(s)

Online Price: $29.95

Course Type: Full



Focus:
In this 1 hour course, you will learn the essential administrative steps and details involved in establishing a practice in long term care settings. Although it does not provide an in depth review of clinical proficiencies and knowledge requirements for working with older adults, it does offer a close look at what may be offered to client facilities and residents, including clinical programs, psychological testing, and other billable and non-billable procedures. Equal or perhaps greater emphasis, however, is on practice building opportunities and efficiencies, including contracting, triage scales, consultation, documentation, paid staff positions, and billing arrangements. The course is packed with practical, nuts-and-bolts details needed by the mental health practitioner who is new to these settings, and reviews other valuable resources and readings for those choosing to pursue this rewarding practice opportunity.
Audience: Mental health professionals

Certifications: APA, BBS, FLBSW, TXBSW
