Gain a better understanding of the regulations and standards of practicing over state lines. In the last decade, particularly in the midst of and post-COVID-19, the need to expand telehealth in the behavioral and mental health treatment sphere is critical. Over 52 million people in the U.S. have mental health needs and 40 percent of those with mental health needs have no or few treatment options. Despite the Mental Health Parity Act mandates, more than 40 percent of those with mental health needs do not receive treatment, largely due to limited provider access and socio-economic conditions. Interstate utilization of telebehavioral and telemental health services significantly increases access to mental health providers, while addressing health disparities/inequalities. It is essential that federal and state lawmakers pass requisite laws, to allow unrestricted delivery of healthcare to all suffering from behavioral and mental health problems, particularly disadvantaged social groups. This program will provide an in-depth discussion of the growing role of telebehavioral and telemental health care during COVID-19 and the future of telehealth in the delivery of mental health treatment in the post-PHE world while ensuring compliance with federal and state regulations.

Learn how to address all the major causes of slips, trips, and falls in the workplace and how to prevent them. Statistically speaking, slips, trips and falls are the second leading cause of death among general industry workers and account for about 20 percent of nonfatal workplace injuries. OSHA released a final rule in 2017, which dramatically altered employers’ responsibilities for compliance with prevention of these significant injuries, inspection of working and walking surfaces, employee training, and even development of fall prevention plans for some types of work. OSHA now is enforcing the rule through a National Emphasis Program affecting all industries. This webinar will help employers understand what is required under the current rules and NEP, how fall protection equipment requirements have changed, which general industry activities are now more aligned with construction requirements, and what new equipment will be needed to conform to the updated requirements (and when). The topic will also address proactive measures you can implement now to reduce expensive fall injuries in your workplace.

Learning Objectives

You will be able to define which walking and working surfaces are covered by OSHA’s revised standard and what the specific prevention requirements are for each type of hazardous exposure.

You will be able to describe the different methods that employers may now use to protect general industry workers from falls, in lieu of fixed guardrail and barrier systems.
