SUMMARY:Webinar: A Landmark Study on NCCHC Accreditation
DESCRIPTION:A groundbreaking randomized trial conducted across 44 U.S. jails by Marcella Alsan\, PhD\, MD\, of the Harvard Kennedy School\, and Crystal Yang\, PhD\, JD\, of Harvard Law School\, finds that NCCHC accreditation significantly improves compliance with health care standards\, reduces mortality\, and lowers recidivism rates. In this webinar\, Dr. Alsan and Dr. Yang will discuss their methodology\, feedback from the jails in the study\, and their findings. The authors conclude that NCCHC accreditation is a very cost-effective intervention\, generating benefits that far outweigh the costs of the program. \nLearning Objectives \n\nDiscuss the legal and medical landscape for U.S. jails regarding correctional health care\nDescribe the study’s research protocols\nExplain the main study findings on standards and health outcomes\n\nThis webinar is free. Registration includes access to the PPT slide presentation\, webinar recording\, and CE credit – 1.00 CE hour for ACCME\, ANCC\, APA\, and CCHP. \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Navigating Correctional Health Care as a New Professional: FREE Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Made possible by an educational grant from the NCCHC Foundation \nPresented by the NCCHC Young Professionals Committee \nWorking in correctional health care presents unique challenges and rewards. On one hand\, the environment can be demanding due to the complex medical needs of incarcerated individuals\, often exacerbated by substance abuse disorders and mental illness. Additionally\, navigating security protocols and maintaining safety adds another layer of difficulty. However\, the opportunity to make a tangible difference in the lives of a marginalized population is incredibly rewarding. Providing quality care to patients without a history of health care can lead to profound improvements in health outcomes and overall well-being. Moreover\, the diverse patient population offers valuable opportunities for professional growth and learning. \nAs an early career professional\, you may find your workplace bewildering\, frustrating\, exciting\, and rewarding — all at the same time. Our experienced multidisciplinary panel will share challenges and solutions to common situations\, with time for you to delve further and ask your own questions. \nThis webinar is a project of the NCCHC Young Professionals Committee. It is supported by an educational grant from the NCCHC Foundation. \nUp to 1 hour of CE for physicians\, nurses\, psychologists\, and general. See the registration page for more details. \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Lived Experience: The Need for Anti-Racism Work in Correctional Health Care Webinar
DESCRIPTION:The mission of NCCHC’s Committee on Systemic Racism is to guide the field toward eradicating systemic racism through clinical\, education\, research\, advocacy policy\, and practice tools. The Committee hosted open forums at the 2022 NCCHC Spring and Fall conferences to identify themes and issues and where intervention may be most useful.  One theme that came up repeatedly was racism experienced by staff of color. In our work towards an anti-racist environment for both patients and staff\, the lived experiences of staff are a crucial component in understanding racism in correctional health care environments. This webinar will explore such lived experiences\, offer a dialogue on how racism impacts individuals working in correctional health care\, and explore interventions to address this issue. \nThere is no charge for this webinar. CE is not available. \nRegister Now \nPresenters: \nJoel Andrade\, PhD\, LICSW\, CCHP-MH\, Falcon Inc.\nMary Muse\, MSN\, RN\, CCHP-RN\, CCHP-A\, Wisconsin Department of Corrections\nMiriam Ha\, MPH\, PA\, CCHP\nDanotra McBride\, CCHP\, King County Correctional Facility \n
