Integrated Primary Care

Integrated Primary Care

von Barbara Cubic

This book offers a concise, clinically focused overview of
integrated primary care (IPC) in which theories and models of IPC
are reviewed alongside evidence of its effectiveness. The authors
provide practical guidance on the implementation of IPC in various
settings including strategies to form collaborative relationships
with members of primary care teams. They propose key
competencies and evidence-based clinical skills necessary to
function in IPC settings and present useful resources and
worksheets for patient care, all while relaying depictions of routine
days for behavioral health providers in IPC. This volume is crucial
for behavioral health providers who seek insight and direction on
how to best operate in various IPC environments.
