Cardiac Rehabilitation Elective Residents have had the opportunity to work with a psychologist in this setting who specializes in and studies change in health promoting behaviors in the context of Phase 2 and 3 cardiac rehabilitation services. This University outpatient mental health service provides care exclusively to seniors with mental health needs. These patients most often have co-occurring medical problems which require active attention. Individual and family counseling, is provided. The resident functions as a primary therapist and psychiatric collaborator to non-physician therapists.
Supervision is provided by both psychiatry and internal medicine faculty.
Residents' Morning Report The Medicine and Psychiatry programs are innovators in the use of residents' morning report as means to teach an evidence-based approach to medical and psychiatric decision making. Both programs use residents' mornIng report as a means to have regular contact with teaching faculty outside the fray of bedside care to discuss cases and explore the scientific literature for the best evidence with which to inform the decisions that we make in the daily care of patients. We hope by doing this to provide you with the tools for life-long learning, effective problem solving, and the highest quality of care to your patients. This monthly forum offers combined program residents and faculty from both medicine and psychiatry an opportunity to examine the literature and learn from one another in an informal setting.
