SUMMARY:Working with Children: Getting comfortable with different levels of risk
DESCRIPTION:WORKING WITH CHILDREN IS RARELY BLACK & WHITE\nWorking with children involves several risk factors. As a counsellor\, how prepared and equipped are you to handle these situations? \nWhen children or their parents seek counselling for on their behalf\, things are rarely black and white.

It doesn’t have to be that way. \nThis workshop will prepare counsellors to accurately identify red flags as well as evaluate\, and manage risk while providing the best care their young clients need.  \nHow this workshop will help your practice: \n\nUnderstanding grey areas surrounding consent and identifying your risk tolerance level\nAsking the right questions and identifying red flags\nSpotting nuances when children seek counselling for themselves or when parents seek counselling for their children\nQuantifying risks\nConducting a thorough background evaluation\n\nABOUT THE PRESENTER:\nJohn-Paul is an accredited family law arbitrator\, family law mediator and parenting coordinator.

SUMMARY:Supporting Families Going Through the MAiD Process
DESCRIPTION:UNDERSTANDING MAiD & HOW TO SUPPORT FAMILIES NAVIGATING THE PROCESS\nJoin us for an informative two-hour workshop featuring Dr. Stefanie Green\, MD\, as she delves into the realm of Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) and shares her invaluable experience working with MAiD families. Don’t miss this opportunity to expand your professional skills and make a meaningful impact in the lives of those facing these challenging decisions. \nThis workshop is designed to empower helping professionals to effectively support families navigating the MAiD process. Dr. Green will provide strategies for facilitating conversations\, information about connecting individuals with assessment resources\, and demystifying the preparation phase\, including what crucial assessments are involved. \nWhat we’ll cover: \n\nUnderstand the MAiD process and assessment procedures to support families effectively\nExplore the role of RCCs in pre- and post-MAiD support.\nNavigating your own emotions\, such as grief\nDevelop communication skills for compassionate discussions about these tough decisions.\n\nNOTE: This workshop will be recorded and made available to registrants for only two weeks after the live workshop.  \nRegister Now\n  \nABOUT THE PRESENTER:\nStefanie Green is a physician\, speaker\, and the author of the international bestseller This is Assisted Dying. Dr. Green spent ten years in general practice and another twelve years working exclusively in maternity and newborn care before changing her focus in 2016 to medical assistance in dying (MAiD). In her landmark transformative and compassionate memoir\, Dr. Green reveals the reasons a patient might seek an assisted death\, how the process works\, what the event can look like\, and what it feels like to oversee matters and administer medications that hasten another person’s death. \nDeeply authentic and powerfully emotional\, This Is Assisted Dying contextualizes the myriad of personal\, professional\, and practical issues surrounding assisted dying by bringing readers into the room. Dr. Green shares the voices of her patients\, her colleagues\, and her own narrative as she describes the extraordinary people she meets and the unusual circumstances she encounters while navigating the intricacy\, intensity\, and utter humanity of these powerful interactions. As our population confronts issues of wellness\, integrity\, agency and community\, and how to live a connected\, meaningful life\, this progressive and compassionate book is at the forefront of medically assisted dying\, offering comfort and potential relief. \nDr. Green enjoys speaking about MAiD to the public\, to health care communities\, and to a wide range of audiences locally\, nationally\, and internationally. She is an educational resource in the academic world\, can speak to advocacy groups\, and can discuss policy work surrounding MAiD. \nShe is the Founding President (and immediate past president) of the Canadian Association of MAiD Assessors and Providers (CAMAP). She is a medical advisor to the BC Ministry of Health MAiD oversight committee\, a moderator of CAMAP’s national online forum\, has provided expert testimony to the Canadian House of Commons and the Senate\, and has hosted several national conferences on the topic of assisted dying. She is a member of the clinical faculty at both the University of British Columbia and the University of Victoria. She believes This Is Assisted Dying will change the way people think about their choices at the end of life\, and showcase that assisted dying is less about death than it is about how we wish to live. \n  \nONLINE SESSION INFORMATION: \nDates: Thursday May 30\, 2024 \nTime: 12pm to 2pm \nFormat: Online \nCost: \n\n$100 for BCACC Members\n$50 for BCACC student members\n$200 for Non-Members\n\n  \nNOTES:\n\nFor registration support\, please email education@bcacc.ca \nFor student registration\, please email studentmembers@bcacc.ca\nThe event zoom link will be sent a day before the event.  \nThe workshop will be recorded and made available to registrants for only two weeks after the live stream. Please note\, you must be a registrant to access this session’s recording. \n\n  \nDisclaimer: Except where specifically indicated\, the opinions expressed in this notice are strictly those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors\, its officers\, directors\, or staff.
