This course is intended to provide the learner with specialized skills necessary in delivering behavioral health assessment/intervention in an integrated medical setting. The course will focus on how to manage a caseload in an integrated care setting (e.g., maintaining open access, triage as necessary, determining who could benefit from targeted treatment) as well as how to conceptualize cases, formulate treatment plans, provide documentation appropriate for the setting and crisis intervention strategies. Additionally, we will discuss the importance of collaboration and information sharing with other team members, as well as how to provide consent for this communication and the potential ethical issues that can arise. We will discuss the nuanced role that an IBH clinician has in managing chronic disease, engaging health promotion, and assessing and treating special populations. Lastly, the role of an IBH practitioner extends beyond intervention in the clinic (e.g. telehealth), and thus we will also learn the importance of interdisciplinary consultation and referral as well as strategies for outreach to community resources and settings in order to support both clinic and patient in whole person health.
