Catherine Wahlberg, JD
Program Description
In this webinar, Catherine Wahlberg, JD, outlines when, how, and to whom members of the healthcare community should make reports of suspected child abuse or neglect. She explores how to distinguish routine childhood health issues from the physical, mental, and emotional signs of possible abuse or neglect. She also discusses documenting a child’s condition in the health record as contrasted with retention of documentation of the report in the health care professional’s compliance records.
