Some of us struggle going to the doctor. Some of us shrink in terror at the sight of nail clippers. But when individuals with histories of avoiding medical care need help learning to tolerate these necessary procedures, what treatments can we use? This week we head to the doctor's office with a review of a broad spectrum of articles discussing teaching medical toleration. Let's just say Amazon isn't the only group putting together big packages we're excited to see.
This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.
