Agenda

5:00 pm – 6:00 pm Networking

6:00 pm – 7:30 pm Panel Discussion

1.5 CEUs


Society expects healthcare leaders and providers to practice standards of good health and serve as strong advocates for those they serve. Those impaired by substance abuse, dependency or mental/emotional instability not only diminish their own credibility, but also that of their organization. Public confidence in the organization is reduced when it appears the organization is not taking appropriate steps to safeguard patients and employees with high standards of professional and ethical practice. This lack of confidence may cause the community to deem the organization, and perhaps by extension the profession, unworthy of its support and trust.
