The Oregon Mediation Association, the ADR Section of the Oregon State Bar, and the Oregon Patient Safety Commission are sponsoring a two-day, 16-hour training to orient mediators to Oregon’s landmark new law that supports the early discussion and resolution of adverse healthcare events. Participants will be trained on the subject matter, which is a requirement for those seeking to be on the Commission’s roster of qualified mediators. This is the country’s first statewide effort of its nature, providing patients and healthcare providers a means to address, through early discussion, possible resolution outside of court.
For background information on the Early Discussion and Resolution Process, visit the Oregon Patient Safety Commission’s website.
Who Should Attend: While the training will be open to all mediators, it will be designed for mediators who already meet the requirements in the Administrative Rules; OAR 325-035-0035. Requirements include:
Given the need to have qualified mediators on the roster by the July 1st start date, preference will be given to the first 36 mediators who certify that they meet, or will meet all of the minimum qualification requirements once they have completed this course. Other training applicants will be allowed to register for the course on a first come, first served basis. In the event that there is a sizeable waiting list, a second training will be offered in the fall.
You will be notified no later than June 2, 2014, about whether you were among the first 36 persons accepted for the training.
Cost: $650. The training cost includes all materials, breakfast and lunch both days and a no-host reception at the end of Day 1.
MCLE and CE Credits Pending.
