Participants may be familiar with the term person-centered care, but may struggle with how to apply this approach with clients. This workshop will define person-centered care and the application of this approach from the beginning of treatment to the end stage in outpatient settings. Participants will also learn the key components of OASAS standards of documentation of person-centered care in the treatment record of clients under their care.
