Program Abstract:
Mindfulness and meditation have been linked to improved health outcomes. Yet, how can we as practitioners integrate these concepts into our care delivery models like patient-centered medical homes? How can student health act as a campus leader in how to integrate such practices into our campus cultures? This presentation will provide participants with concrete examples of how one campus has linked clinical practice (i.e. administration of the PHQ-9) to health education programs and services around mindfulness and stress management, as well as assisting training students, faculty, and staff to integrate mindfulness into daily living.
