Austen Riggs Center is hosting a one-hour webinar about “…the phenomenon of the nocebo response…”
The learning objectives for this event include:
• Identify potential sources of harm from medications that are mediated by meaning.
• Discuss ethical dilemmas related to iatrogenic meanings and efforts to avoid harm produced by the meanings of medication
• Use basic psychotherapeutic skills, including skills for developing a patient-centered alliance, to address harmful effects of medications mediated by meaning.
Social workers may receive one continuing credit hour through ASWB.
