Join our Virtual Grand Rounds: California’s Mental Health Landscape and Brief Interventions to Empower Front-Line Clinicians on Tuesday, February 13, 2024, from 12:00 p.m PT to 1:00 p.m. PT
Physicians are constantly reminded by media, our specialty societies and academic journals of the rapidly increasing mental health needs of our patients. And yet, in a largely siloed system in which mental health is cared for apart from physical health, many front-line clinicians feel at a loss when they encounter mental distress.
In this Virtual Grand Rounds, Ashley Mills, M.S., Assistant Deputy Director of Community Wellness with the California Department of Public Health, will help us understand the scope of mental health concerns in California and opportunities for prevention and early intervention. We will also be joined by Tam Nguyen, Ph.D., Director of Ambulatory Care, Mental Health and Addiction Care for Sutter Health, who will help us understand the challenges that front-line providers face and detail some brief interventions that clinicians can use in a variety of clinical settings.
We will also hear from our usual speaker, California State Epidemiologist Erica Pan, M.D., MPH, who will review the current status of COVID-19, influenza and other winter respiratory viruses.
