Lunch - Optional Continuing Professional Development

Lunch

Optional Continuing Professional Development Discussion

In-person attendees: Join us for lunch.

Virtual attendees: Please enjoy a lunch break.

Optional Continuing Professional Development Discussion

This optional Continuing Professional Development Discussion involves guided reflections about topics and treatment changes based on morning topics. Participants may choose any topic from the conference presentations that are most likely to impact or improve their practice.

Worksheet: For in-person attendees, you can pick up a worksheet at the check-in table, others may use the downloadable document. Use this document for the discussion and reflection of the chosen topic. The worksheet displays areas that have been demonstrated as the major barriers or areas that impact the implementation of new content into practice.

Take notes as you reflect. When you go to complete the evaluations for CE credit, the evaluation will ask you to share what you wrote in the worksheet. (NOTE: simple answers will not result in credit - one must truly reflect on the topic.

Learning Objectives

Discuss the impact of key takeaways of conference topics on practice
Discuss practice implementation planning for conference topics

About this Program:

Literature on continuing education in healthcare has demonstrated a lack of results from learning new knowledge to the actual implementation of new knowledge into practice. The process of implementation includes several steps or barriers to the implementation of new knowledge. These include:

Identifying what changes in practice
Understanding the impact and/or need for other healthcare team members' involvement
Changes or updates to existing guidelines that may create barriers to implementation
Using tools and information from the presentation to help facilitate implementation
Steps of actual implementation - this may include understanding the timing and frequency of actual change

Contemplating and understanding the steps and barriers to implementation have been shown to make a significant difference in the actual implementation of new knowledge into practice. The use of this exercise on key concepts will help ensure the use of new knowledge in practice.

Facilitator: Glen Baumgart, Ph.D. serves as Director of the Center for Continuing Professional Development at The University of Texas at Austin College of Pharmacy. He holds a doctorate in educational psychology and has extensive experience in managing education discussion sessions. Disclosure: Dr. Baumgart has no financial relationship(s) to disclose.

Thank you for visiting the Teva Medical Affairs page. The primary role of the Teva. Medical Affairs organization is to educate and communicate scientific information and generate new data. Our field medical teams, consisting of Medical Science Liaisons (MSLs) and Value, Evidence, and Outcomes Liaisons (VEOs), focus particularly on specific therapeutic areas – psychiatry and movement disorders. MSLs serve as a non-promotional, objective, scientific resource both internally and externally for the company. They engage with a variety of healthcare providers (HCP) through different activities, including presentations, one-on- ones, and conferences allowing for a two-way flow of information between the HCP and the company. VEOs focus on communicating a product’s value proposition and health outcomes data to payers. To submit a request to meet with your MSL or VEO, please visit Medical Request Form
