ForwardSanté Center for Healing - Maintaining Proper Boundaries (JS2011A-021920)
In a society of changing values and greater awareness of boundary violations, impacted constituents - patients, hospital corporations and Medical Boards - no longer accept inappropriate behaviors by physicians or other healthcare providers. "Maintaining Proper Boundaries," is a 3-day training course (offered quarterly) providing self-assessment, knowledge, awareness, skills, applicable tools and prevention strategies to healthcare professionals with difficulty maintaining proper boundaries with patients, colleagues and/or staff. The "Maintaining Proper Boundaries" faculty is a mixture of tenured mental health clinicians and seasoned medical experts who create and encourage a course environment conducive to open discussions, sharing personal experiences and identifying next best steps for protecting physicians, their work environment and patients. The course utilizes a variety of lectures, multi-media inter-actives, and self-reflection (worksheets, presentation, and homework) to provide education, illumination and/or intervention that could save a license or a life.
Learning Objectives
At course completion, participates will be able to successfully:
- Identify the types of unethical behaviors and boundary violations that result in litigation, difficulty with the medical boards and/or hospital corporations, or action by other licensure boards
- Discern behaviors and situations where the healthcare professional is most vulnerable to inappropriate involvement with patients, colleagues and/or staff members.
- Recognize and develop strategies to avoid high risk situations and ethical dilemmas that leave the professional vulnerable to crossing boundaries.
- Recognize high risk patients and identify how to avoid problematic situations with them.
- Identify methods to safeguard the hospital, the office and other treatment settings.
- Discuss the ethical and legal obligations for reporting and/or intervening on boundary violations of a colleague.
- View and utilize Physician’s Health Program as an advocate.
