The fellow will spend the majority of time with attending psychologists in integrated primary care settings but will also have the option to have a minor rotating experiences in outpatient medical clinics, inpatient consultation/liaison or the autism center. Our primary care clinics serve a diverse patient population.  Our model currently offers hybrid care with a mix of integrated and co-located appointments characterized by rapid consultation and intervention during medical appointments and short-term follow-up interventions for some patients. Fellows are trained to serve a broad range of ages (0-21) and presenting concerns. The fellow will also receive interprofessional, team-based training experiences with pediatric medical residents. There will also be opportunities for assessment with the primary care setting and program development.

Diversity is an important part of Nationwide Children's Hospital’s vision and, as an organization, we strive to have our staff be reflective of the communities we serve. At Nationwide Children's, diversity is defined more broadly than the traditional definition of race and/or nationality and includes race, ethnicity, age, gender, socioeconomic status, religious beliefs, family structure, sexual orientation and physical ability. Across the hospital you will see multiple initiatives in line with this value.  Nationwide Children's Hospital is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer. Minorities, women, veterans, and persons with disabilities are encouraged to apply.
