Ethics and Professional Issues:
   Sexual Harassment Prevention Training

Presented by Rehab Connections   

Description

This workshop meets TWO continuing education requirements, ethics in practice and sexual harassment prevention training, with a focus on key concepts for practical application to clinical practice, such as:

The new CE requirement for sexual harassment prevention training is only 1 hour however considering our many roles with coworkers, patients, and students; challenges to recognizing and reporting misconduct in our variety of settings; and the necessity for integrity and dignity in practice; we believe combining sexual harassment prevention and ethics is important for rehab professionals.

 Scenarios for discussion     Meets new license renewal requirements     Evidence-informed

The PT Administrative Code of our Illinois Physical Therapy Act indicates that 3 hours of PT/PTA continuing education required for licensure renewal "must include content related to the ethical practice of physical therapy" and the Administrative Code of the Illinois Occupational Therapy Practice Act indicates "in each renewal period, one contact hour shall include a course in ethics".
