This engaging webinar with Dr. Louise Stanger, in collaboration with our partners at BHAP, explores the critical importance of ethical treatment within the behavioral healthcare industry. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how ethical practices not only impact patient care but also build trust and accountability in treatment organizations. Dr. Stanger will examine hot ethical topics, such as the use of cannabis for opiate withdrawal, the role of Narcan in treatment, and issues surrounding healthcare fraud, patient brokering, and misrepresentation of services.
The course will provide a comprehensive, step-by-step approach to resolving ethical dilemmas, with an emphasis on best practices, the latest ethical strategies, and maintaining high standards of care. Participants will also learn how to identify unethical practices, reduce them within their programs, and navigate the evolving landscape of addiction treatment while remaining ethically compliant.
This webinar challenges healthcare professionals to take a bold stance on ethics, considering the implications of their decisions from the perspective of individual practitioners, treatment owners, and consumers. Dr. Stanger will also highlight the differences between ethics and laws and offer guidance on safeguarding ethical practices, particularly in the age of social media.
Join us to explore practical strategies for creating an ethically sound treatment environment, while learning how to stand firm against unethical practices in the industry.
