Integrated care is crucial for breaking down professional biases and improving patient interactions. We need to work on having a common language to better serve our clients and patients.
Ever wondered how combining physical and mental health care could transform patient outcomes? In this episode of 'Supporting Minds', Michelle Zechner from Rutgers School of Health Professions sits down with Dr. Tamika Miner, a faculty member at the Department of Psychiatric Rehabilitation and Counseling Professions. Dr. Miner passionately discusses the power of integrated care, emphasizing its role in fostering better patient interactions and achieving superior health results.
She highlights how effective communication and teamwork are the backbone of this approach, breaking down professional silos and biases that often hinder comprehensive care. Dr. Miner doesn't shy away from addressing the challenges, particularly the common practice of co-located care, which falls short of true integration. She also brings attention to emerging trends like the focus on justice-involved individuals and the increasing prevalence of behavioral health issues, underscoring the need for inclusive and holistic care models.
This episode is a must-listen for healthcare professionals eager to enhance their practice and advocate for underserved populations.
