Are you practicing enough prevention in your own practice? Would your records contain the most important details if your care of a patient were to be scrutinized? With the expansion of power that the naturopathic regulators have, it is important for NDs to become proactive with their recordkeeping and consent discussions with patients to reduce the potential for regulatory and legal risks.
This presentation will provide NDs with an overview of the essentials of defensive record keeping, and how to avoid common record keeping pitfalls that may increase your risk of complaints or lawsuits.

- To learn the common clinical complaints before regulatory colleges and serious decisions that could be made.
- To respond professionally to College complaints and investigations.
- To understand essentials of obtaining and documenting informed consent from patients to prevent legal risks.
- To maintain proactive documentation, and avoid common oversights to prevent risk.
- To understand consent and custody issues specific to children.
