The increasing shortage of psychiatrists in the workforce is a well-documented and alarming trend. In light of this workforce shortage, psychiatrists bear a professional and ethical responsibility to identify strategies to increase access to mental health treatment and thereby reduce the impact of the psychiatrist shortage on patients and on the greater health system. One such strategy is the collaborative care model (CoCM), which has demonstrated efficacy in the mental health treatment of both pediatric and adult populations. In this article, the CoCM is presented as one effective strategy to address the behavioral workforce shortage. Current themes observed from the clinical practice of psychiatric collaborative care in a pediatric collaborative care setting are discussed with contemplation of future directions.
劳动力中精神科医生的短缺日益严重,这是一个有据可查且令人警醒的趋势。鉴于这种劳动力短缺,精神科医生有专业和道德责任来确定增加获得心理健康治疗的策略,从而减少精神科医生短缺对患者和更广泛的医疗系统的影响。协作式护理模式(CoCM)就是这样一种策略,它已经在儿童和成人的精神健康治疗中显示出了疗效。本文将 CoCM 作为解决行为劳动力短缺的一种有效策略。讨论了在儿科协作护理环境中进行精神科协作护理的临床实践中观察到的当前主题,并对未来的方向进行了思考。
