Psychiatry for Primary Care: Psychopharmacology, Psychotherapy, and Clinical Environment Initiatives

This project documents outputs from a multifaceted initiative aimed at equipping primary care providers with psychiatric skills and improving the clinical environment of a psychiatric student-run free clinic. Work spans three interconnected areas: (1) educational workshops on psychopharmacology and psychotherapy for primary care providers and residents, (2) evaluation of environmental modifications on patient satisfaction and anxiety, and (3) program development and dissemination efforts. Outputs include conference posters and oral presentations. A manuscript examining clinical environment modifications and patient experience is currently under review.
