Conduct a review of the scholarly literature over the past 5 years that (4 pages) that:
Discusses the issue as it relates to the primary or integrated care setting.
Identifies how social determinants of health (social and economic conditions) can impede care or magnify the issue.
Provides recommendations on assessment tools and interventions that are most effective for interprofessional primary care practice.
Part II:
Illustrate how you would intervene in the primary care setting by creating a 3-page script/dialogue between yourself and a patient on your chosen topic. You should start the script as if you are behavioral health provider in a primary care setting, and one of the PCPs has just conducted a warm handoff and asked you to meet with the patient. Create a script of a 15-minute session (3 pages). The script should incorporate dialog from both provider and patient. For example:
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROVIDER: How are you doing today? The PCP just said you’ve been dealing with some concerns. Can you tell me about them?
PATIENT: Yeah, I’ve been feeling…
Your script does not have to be based on your actual behavioral health practice in a primary care setting. In the dialogue you create, your script should represent the following:
what you would do if you were actually in that setting dealing with the specific issue that you discussed in your literature review
how you would address and recognize the patient’s intersectional identities, and to ensure any intervention you conduct acknowledges how socio-structural and/or environmental factors impede care or magnify mental and/or behavioral health concerns
how you would ensure your assessment and interventions foster resilience
