Stepping into your clinical career as an herbalist is daunting and requires direction, support, and confidence. When first starting out our your clinical practice journey, there are many factors to consider; from herbalism and the law, overheads and administrative systems, clinical skills, forms and policies, to preparing your own extracts, formulating for clients, and managing your dispensary.
Join Clinical Herbalist, Erika Galentin MNIMH, RH (AHG), for a free online class exploring the many facets of modern clinical herbal practice and details that you might want to consider in setting up your own herbal clinic.
In this online class Erika will be sharing a bit about her story in setting up her clinical herbal practice in Ohio and cover the following topics:
Why obtaining clinical skills to work one on one with clients does not take precedence over learning the clinical and business infrastructure required to facilitate seeing clients.
Why seeking clinical mentorship may not be the next step for you in your clinical career and how to identify when you are ready to start working with a mentor.
Why having good clinical forms is the cornerstone of a solid clinical practice and what types of forms you should have ready to go.
The importance of considering 'the business' of clinical practice including consultation options and setting fees, professional and liability insurance, the free clinical model, and accounting.
Professional practicalities and ethical considerations including Scope of Practice, Herbalism & the law, Privacy and Confidentiality, & Non-discrimination policies.
Marketing considerations including being familiar with what you can and cannot say in print, on your website, to the media, and on social media and how this reflects safety, ethics, and accountability in your clinical work.
What you need to be thinking about in regards to getting herbs and supplements to your clients including managing a clean and compliant dispensary.
