September I spent a month in Psychiatry and I LOVED IT!
Week 1- PM ED Shift working with patients in Acute Psychosis or in Suicide Crises to determine if they needed to be voluntary or involuntary held at the hospital for their safety
Week 2- Interdisciplinary Substance Use Intervention Team throughout the Hospital to help individuals withdrawing and see if they were ready to start substance recovery treatment
Week 3 & 4 was a mix of: In-Patient Psychiatric Wards (Mood Floor and High Needs Floor) Out-Patient Women’s Clinic (see my office above where I was the psychiatrist for the day 😍) Helped conduct ECT Treatments- blog post coming soon! |
