The rapid spread of COVID-19, its variants, and use of social distancing measures are changing the way providers work across systems to provide needed mental health services. Extended of remote communication has resulted in new challenges in the ways mental health professionals provide services, engage clients, and manage instability. While much of the evidence base for telehealth services discusses best-practices, the context of the COVID-19 pandemic requires the ongoing adaptation and updates to health practices for the current evolution of circumstances of a remote workforce.
This training for service providers across a variety of disciplines provides an interactive and engaging look at remote/telehealth services for consumers of mental health services. Participants explore some common barriers for effective services and numerous techniques, strategies, and practices that can facilitate engagement, risk management, and treatment. Pandemic resiliency strategies will review ways to support high needs clients, online service fatigue, and complex remote multidisciplinary team dynamics.
