Agenda

Nurse Practitioners are at the heart of today's healthcare system. With the increased need for mental health and psychiatric services, you need in-depth education, tailored to your practice, in order to provide the best possible care to all patients. The Psych Congress NP Institute in-person event is an essential educational experience, crafted by the world-class leaders of Psych Congress. Discover this newly available offering that will take a deep dive into everything you need to know about psychopharmacology but have been afraid to ask, including basic psychopharmacology principles and terminology on treatment, disease states, and medication types.

    Agenda Highlights

    This conference will cover everything from traditional medications to what's new on the market now, filling any gaps in your education, as well as new developments. Medication classes such as antidepressants, antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, and stimulants will be covered in depth. Psychiatric disorders such as ADHD, anxiety, bipolar, depression, and schizophrenia will be explored. The conference will also cover important practice-management topics such as most common billing errors and documentation best practices.
