The email below shows a summary of the efforts to make this project come to fruition. You can read the summary or else watch a video overview. If you don’t have time to either just know BCBH is working in partnership with multiple providers in the community to make this program happen. Assuming we can meet the tight timelines to get hire critical staff and to get accredited we are hoping to see our first Psychiatric residents begin their rotations in the summer of 2023. A successful Residency Program typically retains at least 50% of the residents who choose to stay where they practiced. This will allow Butte to begin to rebuild a network of critical providers that we have lost over the past 10 years. If you have any questions please let me know.

Please exercise judgment before opening .. attachments, clicking on links, or replying. Hello everyone! https://youtu.be/nAajpwOIWpE Above is a link to a 30 minute video I recorded last week which provides a comprehensive overview of our GME efforts. A quick summary of the highlights are as follows: Healthy Rural CA submitted the Sponsoring Institution application to ACGME on July 1. We now pivot to the Psychiatry Residency application. We have had many discussions over the past 2 years and this is the time when affiliation agreements with clinical facilities and academic institutions will need to be finalized. Please let me know if Dr. Zwerdling, DIO, and I can meet with anyone on your team to help everyone understand next steps. We are finalizing the Psychiatry Program Director job description to conduct a nationwide search. The program director position is .8 FTE administrative work to be funded by Healthy Rural California. The GME Committee finalized our policy binder and we will share that soon on our web page below, which also lists our GMEC members. Healthy Rural California has Program Letters of Agreement from Ampla Health, Northern Valley Indian Health, Therapeutic Solutions and Behavioral Health Butte County. We are so very grateful for these letters which help us apply to ACGME, and are foundational to the Psychiatry Residency application we turn to next. All are welcome to the table. I will share the GME Committee's final policy binder soon as well as recording of Dr. Zwerdling detailing these policies and ACGME's expectations of all clinical facilities we partner with through our accredited programs. We seek a minimum of $500,000 by September 2021 in order for us to reach accreditation of the Psychiatry Residency Consortium by end of 2022 We plan to participate in Match Day 2023 with the first 4 cohort of Psychiatry Residents arriving in Northern Butte County by summer 2023. A total of 16 residents will rotate to clinical facilities affiliated with Healthy Rural California. Both our GME efforts and the proposed Health and Technology Education Center are being included in a regional, 3-county strategy for Butte, Glenn and Tehama counties. If you are interested in reading the Feasibility Study report for this building which was produced last April, please let me know and I'll send you the PDF. Healthy Rural California will apply for a HRSA grant that will provide technical support for launching a Family Medicine residency with an FQHC, which was just announced yesterday. On behalf of Dr. Theodore Zwerdilng, DIO, and the GME Committee, we thank everyone who has helped us get to where we are today. A huge thank you to North Valley Community Foundation for supporting both the Psychiatry Residency Feasibility study last year, and the launch of the GME Committee so that we can reach accreditation and the OSPHD WET PECE award. A special welcome to Dr. Erik Petersen, the new Medical Director at Behavioral Health Butte County, our key partner in this massive effort. Thank you to Kiki, Maggie and Allie of Wipfli, LLP who continue to guide us with much needed advice and knowledge! https://www.healthyruralca.org/gme-committee/ We hope you are well!
