Consultation
Consultation experiences include a broad range of professional activities with patients and multidisciplinary staff in The University of Minnesota Medical Center, Fairview and various settings. Interns are expected to work closely with their supervisors to integrate selected clinical approaches in primary, secondary and/or tertiary care settings. Interns may be involved in consultation with diverse health, mental health, and social service professionals in health care facilities, schools, public institutions (e.g., courts), and community and governmental agencies. Interns may serve as team members to specific medical (e.g., brain tumor, cystic fibrosis, FAS, genetics, oncology, PKU) and interdisciplinary treatment teams (e.g., inpatient psychiatry). The opportunities for consultation can vary over time in response to clinical, staffing, and systems factors.
