In response to the alarming rise in mental illnesses such as depression, anxiety, insomnia, addiction, and suicide – and the dearth of mental health providers – we have created a conference to train Primary Care Physicians to more confidently care for their patients with these conditions
This fully virtual conference, “Psychiatry for Non-Psychiatrists: The University of Arizona Update in Behavioral Medicine for Primary Care” on Saturday, March 12 will provide practical and actionable knowledge to help PCPs effectively manage these conditions in primary care settings.
Access to mental health care is a right, not a privilege. We aim to empower PCPs and other specialty health providers with new clinical skills to enhance access to care, improve comorbid medical conditions, and reduce the stigma of seeking treatment for mental illness.
This is a planned CME event. Cost: $100 for physicians, $75 for nurses/physician assistants, $50 community members (not CME eligible), $10 for residents/trainees/students (not CME eligible).
