Compounding the problem is confusion about what consti- tutes self-injurious behavior, how to define it, how to manage it and how to prevent it. This presentation will provide participants with the secrets, strategies and science that correctional agencies can use for better management and prevention of self-injurious behaviors. An innovative Self-Injury Profiling System will be introduced that can be us by administrators and front-line staff to develop effective Behavior Management Plans. The 12 critical guidelines for SIB prevention and management and example of clinically defensible documentation will be provided. Video clips and case studies will be used to highlight the successes of the profiling system and attendees will participate in the “profiling” of representative examples. Learning Objectives: Recognize the problems and obstacles to identification, effective assessment and treatment of non-suicidal self-injury and how to document it. • Understand the differences between self-injury resulting from suicidal versus non-suicidal in- tent and the unique characteristics associated with serial self-injurious behaviors. • Identify how a profiling system may be useful in Speakers: Dean Aufderheide Ph.D. , Director of Mental Health Services, Florida Department of Corrections, Tallahassee, Florida; Bennie Wheat, Ph.D. , Correctional Behavioral Health Specialist, American Correctional Association, Alexandria, Virginia Session 3 • Ethical Decision Making in Correctional Health Care Room 2 • 10:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. Knowing and understanding one’s professional ethical standards are necessary for the provision of services. This workshop will discuss the application of professional ethical standards within a correctional environment. Because not every conceivable situation can be covered in the written standards, we will educate and increase awareness of participants through discussion of relevant case examples. Special emphasis will be given to the role of conflict often encountered while providing competent medical and mental health care in a correctional setting. Topics covered will include confidentiality, competence, identifying the “client”, collaboration and relationships, and self-care. Learning Objectives: Discuss respect for offender welfare through knowledge of confidentiality, informed consent, and the right to refuse treatment versus denial of care. • Discuss providing responsible care that promotes the well-being of the offender. • Describe the role of the multi-disciplinary team in establishing a secure and therapeutic environment; the participant will be able to describe various ways to approach ethical decision making.
