Curriculum

A rigorous 2-semester curriculum for the Certificate in Integrated Primary Care and Behavioral Health was designed and implemented as a 1-year training and evaluation tool with 22 BH-PC students. The curriculum was deigned through collaboration and integration from social work, counseling psychology and psychiatric nursing as a way to build upon the disciplines similarities and guide the students into a collaborative interdisciplinary perspective with their BH VOAs. Over 40 professionals from various disciplines and backgrounds contributed to the creation and facilitation of the comprehensive curriculum schedule. This tool was created for training and evaluating the student’s developing competencies required of the Certificate, including SAMSHA’s core competencies, cultural and linguistic competencies.
