West Texas Mental Health Conference

Conference Summary

This educational conference is designed to provide three different concurrent tracks for learners that will provide information about mental illness and resources.  The first track is designed to understand the different aspects of child, adolescent and maternal mental health and develop skills for assessment and interventions.  The second track is designed to create awareness of mental health issues as they relate to special populations or other special considerations. The third track consists of identifying common mental health challenges faced by veterans, active duty members and first responders.  These concurrent sessions are designed to provide assessment instruments, evidence-based practices and therapeutic interventions in order to improve learner’s competence, skills and at the same time building a team-based medical care for patients with mental illness.  

Upon completion of this activity, the attendees should be able to:

As a healthcare team, apply new strategies to the daily practice of medicine to provide an optimal patient care to those patients with mental health challenges or mental illness

Demonstrate proficiency in working as a team to treat patients with mental illness by using available community resources.
