Psychiatric patients' experience in receiving services provided by non-specialist community nurses, southern Thailand
Type: Journal Article
Authors: S. Aekwarangkoon, N. Noonil
Year: 2021
Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Psychiatric problems have been a growing and significant public health challenge. Community-based psychiatric services have been shown to contribute to the improvement of health and social-related outcomes, but with limited specialists in this field. Consequently, Thailand has integrated these services into the primary care system delivered by community nurses working in primary care units (PCUs). AIM: To describe the experiences of psychiatric patients in receiving services provided by non-specialist community nurses. METHOD: A phenomenological approach was used. Eleven psychiatric patients with 10 major depressive disorders and 1 with schizophrenia were interviewed. The results were evaluated using thematic content analysis. RESULTS: The results revealed two main themes as barriers and facilitators experienced in receiving services from community nurses. CONCLUSION: Community-based services should be concerned about developing psychiatric nursing competency for community nurses to extend basic services to patients in communities and to assist family members.

Psychiatric pharmacist and primary care collaboration at a skid-row safety-net clinic
Type: Journal Article
Authors: B. Chung, J. A. Dopheide, P. Gregerson
Year: 2011
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: PURPOSE: There is limited access to psychiatric medication follow-up services at safety-net clinics serving the largely homeless minority population of Los Angeles' skid-row district. This paper describes the process of establishing a pharmacist-run psychiatric medication management service, the types of interventions provided by the psychiatric pharmacist, and patient and provider satisfaction with the service. METHODS: The establishment of a collaborative practice agreement between primary care physicians and psychiatric pharmacists is described along with the patient demographics and types of pharmacist interventions. Primary care physicians were surveyed regarding their comfort level with managing psychiatric illness and prescribing psychotropic medications. They were also asked about their opinion of psychiatric pharmacist medication management services. An anonymous patient satisfaction survey was also administered. RESULTS: The development of psychiatric pharmacy services is described. The types of interventions included initiating drug therapy, adjusting dosages, discontinuing drug therapy, and providing medication education. Primary care providers were not comfortable in providing psychiatric medication follow-up for patients beyond uncomplicated depression and anxiety disorders. They expressed an overall positive view of psychiatric pharmacist services for their patients with established psychiatric diagnoses. Patient satisfaction ratings were high. CONCLUSIONS: A psychiatric pharmacist-run medication management service in collaboration with primary care providers can improve access to mental health services in safety-net clinics with good provider and patient satisfaction.

Psychiatric training in primary care medicine residency programs. A national survey
Type: Journal Article
Authors: H. P. Chin, G. Guillermo, S. Prakken, S. Eisendrath
Year: 2000
Publication Place: UNITED STATES
Abstract: The authors conducted a national survey to investigate the current status of psychiatric training in primary care/internal medicine residencies. Fifty-four residency training directors completed and returned the survey. The survey results show that an average of 99 hours (69.5 hours clinical plus 29.8 hours didactics) is devoted to psychiatric training during the 3 years of primary care/internal medicine residency training. Responding residency training directors indicated that psychiatric training is important (an average of 7 out of 10 on a 10-point rating scale), and 63% of respondents indicated that more training in psychiatry is needed.

Psychiatric-mental health nursing at the interface: Revisioning education for the specialty
Type: Journal Article
Authors: M. Cotroneo, L. H. Kurlowicz, F. H. Outlaw, A. W. Burgess, L. K. Evans
Year: 2001
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: In the emerging health care environment, families and communities are facing a broad range of conditions that require more integrated views of wellness and illness, mind and body, and the biomedical and the behavioral. This also calls for an enhanced care delivery system. Three interfacing areas of practice have particular significance for the psychiatric-mental health nursing workforce: enhanced primary care, public health or population-focused health interventions, and managed care. This paper addresses the broad range of knowledge, skills, and competencies that are required for the future of advanced practice psychiatric-mental health nursing and describes interactive learning experiences and new pedagogies to deliver them.

Psychiatrists' and Primary Care Physicians' Beliefs About Overtreatment of Depression and Anxiety
Type: Journal Article
Authors: R. E. Lawrence, K. A. Rasinski, J. D. Yoon, F. A. Curlin
Year: 2015
Abstract: Critics say that physicians overdiagnose and overtreat depression and anxiety. We surveyed 1504 primary care physicians (PCPs) and 512 psychiatrists, measuring beliefs about overtreatment of depression and anxiety and predictions of whether persons would benefit from taking medication, investing in relationships, and investing in spiritual life. A total of 63% of PCPs and 64% of psychiatrists responded. Most agreed that physicians too often treat normal sadness as a medical illness (67% of PCPs and 62% of psychiatrists) and too often treat normal worry and stress as a medical illness (59% of PCPs, 55% of psychiatrists). Physicians who agreed were less likely to believe that depressed or anxious people would benefit "a lot" from taking an antidepressant (36% vs. 58% of PCPs) or antianxiety medication (25% vs. 42% of PCPs, 42% vs. 57% of psychiatrists). Most PCPs and psychiatrists believe that physicians too often treat normal sadness and worry as a medical illness.

Psychiatry and primary care integration: Challenges and opportunities
Type: Journal Article
Authors: E. Sorel, A. Everett
Year: 2011
Publication Place: England
Abstract: Health systems across the world remain significantly fragmented, affecting access, quality and costs of the care delivered. Strengthening health systems is a global health challenge for all countries: low, middle and high income. According to the World Health Organization the key components of a well functioning health system, namely, leadership and governance, health information systems, health financing, human resources for health, essential medical products and technologies, and services delivery are sine qua non for health systems functioning and strengthening (WHO, 2010). Psychiatry and primary care integration are contributions the house of medicine can make to address fragmentation, access, quality and costs.

Psychiatry is not a science like others - a focus group study on psychotropic prescribing in primary care
Type: Journal Article
Authors: T. M. Hedenrud, S. A. Svensson, S. M. Wallerstedt
Year: 2013
Publication Place: England
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Psychotropic drug prescribing is problematic and knowledge of factors affecting the initiation and maintenance of such prescribing is incomplete. Such knowledge could provide a basis for the design of interventions to change prescribing patterns for psychotropics. The aim of this study was to explore the views of general practitioners (GPs), GP interns, and heads of primary care units on factors affecting the prescribing of psychotropic drugs in primary care. METHODS: We performed four focus group discussions in Gothenburg, Sweden, with a total of 21 participants (GPs, GP interns, and heads of primary care units). The focus group discussions were transcribed verbatim and analyzed using manifest content analysis. RESULTS: Three different themes emerged from the focus group discussions. The first theme Seeking care for symptoms, reflects the participants' understanding of why patients approach primary care and comprised categories such as knowledge, attitudes, and society and the media. The second theme, Lacking a framework, resources, and treatment alternatives, which reflects the conditions for the physician-patient interaction, comprised categories such as economy and resources, technology, and organizational aspects. The third theme, Restricting or maintaining prescriptions, with the subthemes Individual factors and External influences, reflects the physicians' internal decision making and comprised categories such as emotions, knowledge, and pharmaceutical industry. CONCLUSION: The results of the present study indicate that a variety of factors may affect the prescribing of psychotropic medications in primary care. Many factors were related to characteristics of the patient, the physician or their interaction, rather than the patients' medical needs per se. The results may be useful for interventions to improve psychotropic prescribing in primary care.

Psychiatry resident graduate comfort with general medical issues: Impact of an integrated psychiatry-primary medical care training track
Type: Journal Article
Authors: S. K. Dobscha, K. M. Snyder, K. Corson, L. Ganzini
Year: 2005
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To determine if a psychiatry-primary medical care (PPMC) training track impacts comfort and behaviors related to addressing general medical issues after residency. METHOD: Thirty five psychiatry resident graduates completed mailed surveys; nine of them had completed the PPMC track. RESULTS: Compared to non-PPMC participants, PPMC participants felt better prepared to address medical issues and tended to perform more consultations and feel more comfortable referring patients to general medical providers. They were not more likely to perform routine health screenings. CONCLUSION: Integrated training tracks may impact resident preparedness and career choice but may be insufficient to influence practice behaviors related to delivering general medical care.
