Grand Rounds – Behavioral Health Consultation in the Inpatient Service

---

Event Details:

Overview:

Patient complexity due to physical and behavioral health concerns as well as social determinants of health are prevalent in the inpatient medical setting. Consistently, it is this combination of factors that is the foundation for admission, making a biopsychosocial approach to care particularly relevant. The inpatient medical setting provides an opportunity to provide patients and families with behavioral interventions to impact the Quadruple Aim. This presentation will provide an overview of the history of consultation-liaison services by psychologists in the inpatient medical setting, as well as preliminary findings from a quality improvement pilot project integrating behavioral health consultation into a family medicine residency inpatient service.

Objectives:

1.  Identify common behavioral health concerns in the inpatient medical setting.
2.  List elements of effective consultation-liaison services in the inpatient medical setting.
3.  Describe how integration of behavioral health consultation into the inpatient medical setting contributes to positively impacting the Quadruple Aim.
