PMHNP Clinical Practicum IV

1 Credit · Level: Graduate

In this final practicum, students will demonstrate competency in working with interdisciplinary health care teams to provide culturally-sensitive and trauma-informed mental health care to socially disadvantaged and minoritized populations in community settings. Emphasis is placed on addressing social and structural determinants through an intersectoral approach to mental health care. Professional issues are integrated throughout the course. Through self-reflective practice, students will identify professional goals and associations for continued learning and development as PMHNPs. Group clinical discussions provide students with opportunities to strengthen advocacy and leadership skills in community mental health.
