Contact Hours: 6 (Pending Rx)                                          

Presenter: Dr. Sally Miller

Mental health conditions present in vastly different ways between individuals, and age is a major defining factor. During this day of psychiatric pharmacology education for NPs, Fitzgerald faculty member Dr. Sally Miller breaks down safe and effective prescribing strategies for all age ranges. Learn about commonly misdiagnosed behavioral abnormalities in children, ways personality disorders manifest in adults, and the right steps to take when SSRIs fail to provide relief.

Day 2: Visual and Procedural Learning                               

Schedule: 8 AM – 4 PM (includes breaks)                                            

Contact Hours: 6 (Pending Rx)                                               

Presenter: Dr. Margaret Bobonich

The appearance of skin can reflect internal turmoil in the body, and providers should tune in to common dermatological red flags. During these skin-focused educational sessions for nurse practitioners, faculty member Dr. Bobonich explores the underlying mechanisms that cause skin abnormalities—including blistering, hyperpigmentation, lesions, and more. Bridging the gap between dermatology and primary care, this illuminating day of learning teaches nurse practitioners to develop a holistic approach to addressing skin conditions in clinical scenarios.
