CMSA 2021 VIRTUAL CONFERENCE RUNS THROUGH AUGUST 31ST

The CMSA 2021 Virtual Conference, held live June 7-10, certainly staked its claim in the new world! We may have not been able to be together in person this year, but that didn’t stop attendees from making the most of it! CMSA 2021 was an engaging, informative, and fun event full of great energy and expertise. With continuing education credits topping out at 77, the conference offered a great variation of topics from many subject matter experts with diverse experience, perspectives and backgrounds.

Several networking events provided opportunities to engage with experienced colleagues sharing their successes and challenges. It is amazing how strangers connect and become trusted peers in a matter of an hour – learning from each other is an important aspect of growth. Several presentations on leadership were available and were geared toward strengthening chapters, developing changes in work practices, and learning to manage conflict. We had the opportunity to hear from individuals living with mental illness on how health care professionals can ‘do better’ when it comes to stigma and how music helps a group learn to live meaningfully. So many current and relevant presentations were and are still available – the Conference is not over... With session recordings, exhibits, and posters available through August 31st, there’s still time to register and benefit from this great program.

Here are some additional highlights of the week as shared by attendees:

• Valuable information around the huge shift in healthcare practices since the pandemic
• Sneak peek at what’s in store at CMSA in the coming year, and a new look for the association
• New trends and insight around diversity, equity and inclusion in healthcare
• Motivational interviewing techniques
