How the training works
- Learn — short focused content per competency.
- Practice — Behavioral Skills Training: instruct, model, rehearse, feedback.
- Simulate — interprofessional scenarios with structured debrief.
- Measure — observed competence and operational outcomes, not just attendance.
Fixing access barriers
Staffing gaps, rural access, and siloed care limit psychiatric services. See solutions mapped to common facility barriers.
