The Consultation-Liaison psychiatry service also works closely with patients in the hospital under Involuntary Treatment Act with Single Bed Certification. The Consultation-Liaison psychiatrists have an important role in the education of clinical teams about behavioral health care, including multiple residency programs. The collaborative nature of this position, and partnership with physician and advanced practitioners, medical and surgical trainees, nurses, social work and other health professionals in a team-based environment is particularly rewarding.
Schedule/Call - The consult psychiatry team works weekdays taking consults from 9-5:30 pm or 8-4:30 pm, 5 days per week. There are currently no overnight or weekend responsibilities for team members as this is currently covered by an outside tele psychiatry service.
