Children’s Aid Society Reporting: Navigating Complex Decisions in Family Practice

Family physicians are legally required to report suspected child abuse or neglect in certain circumstances, yet these decisions can be some of the most difficult and stressful they face. Join our panel for a practical discussion on the legislation governing Children's Aid Society (CAS) reporting, how to navigate the decision-making process, and strategies for communicating with patients and families when a report must be made. Panelists will also explore how to maintain therapeutic relationships and continue providing care after a report has been filed. The Practising Well Community of Practice has been certified by the College of Family Physicians of Canada and the Ontario Chapter for up to 1 Mainpro+Ⓡcredits. This Community of Practice includes a series of planned webinars. Each session is worth 1 Mainpro+Ⓡcredits, for up to a total of 12 credits. This is the second of two sessions in a series focused on supporting children and youth at risk. You can register for our first session, 'Supporting Children and Youth with Substance Use Concerns in Primary Care', here. Panelists: Moderator: Co-Host:
