Complex medical and behavioral health needs require coordinated care, yet many correctional teams still work in separate communication channels. This session explores structured interdisciplinary practices such as clinical huddles, case conferencing, and shared documentation workflows that strengthen collaboration. Learn how improved communication supports continuity of care, reduces preventable risk, and creates more integrated approaches to treatment and reentry planning.
