COVID-19, Vaccines, and Returning to your Office

Tara Kirk Sell, Ph.D., Calvin T. Williams Jr, M.D., Ph.D., & Joe Scroppo, Ph.D., J.D.

June 4, 2021, 9 am to 12:20 pm

3 CE Credits

Online via Zoom 

We are now over a year into the pandemic and now with vaccines, there have been a lot of questions about safely seeing patients in person. The presentation will start with an overview of the pandemic in general and the COVID vaccines specifically including efficacy and potential side effects. We will then move onto vaccine hesitancy, misinformation, and ways to approach and communicate about these issues. We will finish the workshop with an overview of current Maryland requirements and guidelines for returning to in-person practice. 

After attending this workshop, attendees will be able to 

  • Explain the efficacy and potential side effects of the various types of COVID vaccines
  • Assess how being vaccinated impacts risks associated with common daily activities 
  • Describe vaccine hesitancy, misinformation and prepare communication approaches for them
  • Analyze the risk management and ethical situations emerging in mental health practice at this time.
