Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Psychologists have always been leaders in the provision of quality mental and behavioral healthcare to their clients. As part of their commitment to continuity of care, psychologists have worked collaboratively with physician colleagues when biological or psychopharmacological treatment issues have been involved in that quality care. The professional evolution of psychology, however, has led to the decision to further enhance psychologists' knowledge base in psychopharmacological treatments. Indeed, recent literature has suggested psychologists have an ethical obligation to continue their training in psychopharmacology, and the impact of biological factors on emotional disorders (Barnett & Neel, 2000). Some psychologists wish to be better informed collaborators with their physician colleagues, while others have decided to pursue an expansion of their scope of practice by legislatively seeking prescriptive authority. The latter goal has been advanced dramatically by New Mexico's recent decision to award psychologists independent prescriptive authority.
