Redline Professional Medical Consent with airSlate SignNow

Sign professional medical consent

welcome to our demonstration on going over informed consent with clients and so as part of your your studies some of the textbooks discuss the importance of reviewing informed consent and some of the key elements of that for an ethical relationship building a therapeutic alliance and so today we want to demonstrate kind of how that takes place the difficulty I think that professor Myrna and I have is most therapists do a little bit differently mostly the same content but they probably approach it differently so we're gonna actually give you two examples of that here today those which you might choose to follow one or the other or certainly as your own developing professional identity you'll create sort of your own approach but um we're gonna go ahead and give you two options here so so welcome hello miss Marie a good to have you here today we had talked on the phone I think last Wednesday and schedule disappointments a day and if you recall I said that this appointment you would come out and you would kind of share in detail more of what you share on the phone about the anxiety that you're experiencing and as we as we talk today I'm going to ask you a fair amount of questions I just want to get to know your situation more detail and just understand more with the depth of those symptoms that you shared and some of the surrounding circumstances at the end of our time I'm also going to give you some recommendations in other words you know Olivia here's here are some things that I think if we work together we really want to do and so I'll lay those out for you at the end of the session and at the end at that time I'm gonna say okay Olivia we've shared a lot and I've given you some recommendations you have the option now to decide whether this is a good place for you if you feel comfortable working with me and certainly how I feel in working with you and and at that time you can decide you know if you stay or if we refer you to some another place or what might be best for you okay so I said that on the phone I'll just kind of reiterate that agenda here today okay as you know these types of things always involve some paperwork and so regardless of what we decide to do at the end of this session we have a little bit of paperwork we're gonna go through and and so I want to review that with you now new life we actually have all of our forms or consent forms or online so we have access to the full form what I have here is kind of a well they call kind of a cheat sheet that time talks about some of the key elements of those forms and so I'm going to review them with you the first is our counseling policy within the counseling policy talks about appointments and cancellations and essentially we ask that you give a 24-hour notice or any kinds of changes and scheduling and if yeah some things come up like snow I had sickness and so we'll certainly consider those but we want to try to try to keep those appointments the next one is termination maybe maybe you've gone you've heard of folks who have been in counseling for like six years we honestly don't do six years here we want to be really purposeful indirect take you where you need to go and and when it's time for you to to stop them we want to be able to stop and if at some point you feel like you know we're not getting anywhere not make any progress I need you to tell me likewise if I'm feeling like you know Olivia said the same thing the last three times you're not doing anything about it we even need to change how we're doing it or come to an end so that's kind of the agreement that we make here in emergencies we don't stay off the office 24/7 that's why when you called in you left a message on the on the voice machine but we did provide the crisis intervention number if you happen to need that and you can also call 9-1-1 as well the next one's confidentiality you know when you go to counseling obviously when you say here stays here there are several limits to that one is if you express a desire to harm yourself or someone else yeah I need to contact somebody likewise if I'm a known of abuse to a mine or a mandated to report that just so we kind of it that's the case all right the last one here's consultation education supervision so there are eight of us in the practice here and we do need regularly to do peer review and then also I teach at Lang survival college and their counseling program and they like to use the cases that I work with in there obviously change all relevant information so where do you live now I move em out to a your mouth joint well now you just move to effort ah and where do you work at right now yes I work at PA counseling your APA counseling said how you work at ran off of industries in Ephrata and so all those details can change around so uh so students wouldn't have any idea who you are so protect your identity okay give any questions about the content accounts in policy no okay two more policies one is the financial policy I think when you set on the phone you do have Highmark Blue Shield and so long I think you brought your cart along will get a copy of that shortly but obviously that you're still responsible for co-pays and deductibles and really ultimately it's your relationship with your insurance provider we'll do our part in billing but if for some reason hi mark says we're just not gonna pay it does come back to you and just so you're aware all right the last one here's our notice of privacy practices and this talks about your protected health information what essentially says is no one has any access to anything here unless you sign an authorization for that so if we need information from a doctor or a physician or or someone we can we can have you sign an authorization so on any any questions about any of those forms at all okay it's pretty pretty simple that was pretty similar to what you would cook to the doctor for okay if that is okay I'm gonna go ahead and give you this form so you have that give that to you and then I have a signature page here that just says that you're of age of sound mind you understood what we talked about here so if you want to just put your name their date of birth here and initial each of these forms that we and a signature down here and also ask that you give an address down here as well so so for the sake of for time here we won't have her go ahead and do that but um that's kind of a real quick demonstration of how I would go over and inform consent but my guess is other folks will do it differently but cover some of the same information so we're going to go ahead and pause this video and it'll good to know
