Led by a physician and an attorney with years of relevant experience, this webinar will discuss indicators that should raise concern and practical tips on when and how to intervene. It will also address the complicated issue of capacity. The webinar will be recorded and available at nadrc.acl.gov. Please direct any questions to Sari Shuman at sshuman@rti.org.
