This evidence-to-practice volume deftly analyzes the processes and
skills of integrating mental healthcare with primary care, using
multiple perspectives to address challenges that often derail these
joint efforts. Experts across integrative medicine offer accessible
blueprints for smoothly implementing data-based behavioral
interventions, from disease management strategies to treatment of
psychological problems, into patient-centered, cost-effective
integrated care. Coverage highlights training and technology
issues, key healthcare constructs that often get lost in
translation, and other knowledge necessary to create systems that
are rooted in-and contribute to-a robust evidence base.
Contributors also provide step-by-step guidelines for integrating
behavioral health care delivery in treating cancer, dementia, and
chronic pain. Among the topics covered: The epidemiology of medical
diseases and associated behavioral risk factors. Provider training:
recognizing the relevance of behavioral medicine and the importance
of behavioral health consultations and referrals. Screening for
behavioral health problems in adult primary care. Health care
transformation: the electronic health record. Meeting the care
needs of patients with multiple medical conditions. Smoking
cessation in the context of integrated care. This depth of clinical
guidance makes Behavioral Medicine and Integrated Care an essential
reference for practitioners on all sides of the equation, including
health psychologists and other professionals in health promotion,
disease prevention, psychotherapy and counseling, and primary care
medicine.
