P02 An In-Depth Review of NCCHC's 2022 Standards for Juvenile Health Services*
Description

This seminar will discuss the 2022 Standards for Health Services in Juvenile Detention and Confinement Facilities, which have been updated and revised to reflect the latest understanding in best practices and NCCHC’s most up-to-date recommendations for managing medical and mental health care delivery in juvenile facilities. These standards parallel those for adult health services in format and substance while making more explicit what the standards require for adequate delivery of health services for youths. Whether or not your facility plans to be accredited, you will leave equipped to implement quality improvements that will lead to more efficient and effective delivery of services, better patient care, fewer adverse events, and reduced liability risk. The registration fee includes a copy of the 2022 Standards, a $90 value. 7 CE credits
