NYAPRS Note: Psychiatric Advance Directives (PADs) can be a transformative way for individuals to articulate preferences around their mental health care. It is an empowering and useful tool to contribute to autonomous decision making in experiences of crisis or difficult transition. And, the tool will be increasingly important in NY when behavioral health services transition to managed care, because Health and Recovery Plan (HARP) members will all be afforded the opportunity to create one. Attend this free training to learn more about PADs.
