Education Resources at UW Medicine

Psychiatry and Addiction Case Conference (PACC) – The UW PACC began in July 2016 and is a free, weekly teleconference that connects community providers with UW Medicine psychiatrists, psychologists, and addictions experts. Sessions include both an educational presentation on an addictions or psychiatry topic and case presentations where providers who participate receive feedback and recommendations for their patients. The series is appropriate for primary care providers including MDs, ARNPs, PAs and mental health providers willing to engage in a proven model of distance learning. View the UW PACC webpage for information on continuing education credits and to review the library of upcoming and previous sessions.

Traumatic Brain Injury – Behavioral Health ECHO (TBI ECHO) – The UW TBI ECHO is a free, twice monthly teleconference connecting front-line providers with specialists to discuss evidence-based treatments and case consultation on the management of behavioral health problems in patients with TBI. Successful TBI recovery can depend in large part on access and adherence to behavioral health treatment. Early identification and intervention improve outcomes, but community resources are scarce and fragmented. This program offers community providers who care for patients who have had a TBI with focused didactics and patient case consultations throughout Washington State. View the TBI ECHO webpage including information on CME.

Dementia ECHO – Hosted at UW’s Memory Hub, Project ECHO Dementia is another web-based conference with an interdisciplinary panel of experts in memory loss and dementia. A brief 15-minute didactic is followed by an hour of case-based learning where everyone at the table is both a teacher and a learner. All Primary and Allied care providers are welcome. For more information, to register for the series, and review past sessions and related resources visit the Project ECHO Dementia website.
