Dates: October 10 & 11th, 2024 (both days are required.)
Time: 8:30amCST/9:30amEST-3:00pmCST/4:00pm EST
Description:
The Diagnostic and Classification of Mental Health and Developmental Disorder of Children 0-5 (DC:0-5) is the first developmentally based system for diagnosing mental health and developmental disorders in children 0-72 months. The DC:0-5 is designed for use by individuals across disciplines to identify concerns, areas of intervention, and to communicate clinical observations between professionals. This 2-day training will provide participants with a complete, ZERO TO THREE approved, DC:0-5 training. The training will provide information on the multi-axial system within the DC:0-5 and prepare participants to fully utilize the manual. Participants will also receive the crosswalk between DC:0-5 and ICD:10 to enable providers, and their agencies, to bill effectively for services for children 0-72 months.
Learning Objectives:
Review ZERO TO THREE's efforts to develop a diagnostic classification system for infancy/early childhood.
Consider an overview of infant/early childhood mental health.
Learn the recommended approach for diagnosing disorders in infancy and early childhood.
Examine the purpose of diagnosis for infants/young children.
Become familiar with DC:0-5 multiaxial system and clinical disorders
*Please note: This training is clinical in nature. Though clinical licensure is not required to attend, participants should be aware that this training alone does not qualify individuals to make or submit diagnoses.
