The Northwest MHTTC is excited to collaborate with Dr. Phillip Hawley from the Yakima Valley Farm Workers Clinic to deliver a live webinar as part of our Integrated Care webinar series.
This training will outline the foundations of the primary care behavioral health (PCBH) model of integration and discuss a variety of clinical applications to why meeting patients where they are at and working within the primary care system provides holistic and quality to patient care. The presenter will also provide statistics and case examples highlighting how this approach covers gaps in our healthcare system and works towards true population health strategies. This event conveys information applicable to rural settings.
