Rabia Khan

Currently working as a Behavioral Health Consultant and Behavioral Medicine Specialist, I collaborate with interdisciplinary healthcare teams to address the social, emotional, and medical needs of patients. This involves consulting with other providers, making referrals, and helping to develop, implement, and adjust treatment plans as necessary. In this role, I may also contribute to diagnosing conditions as part of the overall treatment strategy.

I conduct comprehensive initial assessments of new patients, evaluating their social, emotional, and physical needs using social work theories and behavioral health techniques. This includes interviewing patients and their families to identify any barriers that could impede the effectiveness of treatment and care.

As part of my responsibilities, I develop and manage individualized patient care plans, coordinating referrals to specialty services, documenting progress notes, and ensuring continuity of care. I also assist patients and families in addressing the psychological and environmental challenges related to illness, providing information on available treatment options and making appropriate referrals for additional support.

I manage an assigned caseload, ensuring accurate and thorough documentation of all case activities, including patient care, counseling, and therapeutic interventions, in accordance with departmental and health system policies. This includes preparing written and oral reports on patient progress and outcomes.

In addition, I actively participate in monitoring and evaluating the quality and effectiveness of patient care, providing input on areas for improvement and contributing to the enhancement of care delivery.

I offer supportive services, including grief counseling, crisis intervention, and other therapeutic approaches to help patients and families cope with the emotional, psychological, and behavioral impacts of illness, loss of function, and medical treatment. This includes providing education to patients and families on adapting to a diagnosis, managing treatment, and navigating life changes.

In my role as a **Behavioral Health Consultant** and **Behavioral Medicine Specialist**, I focus on integrating mental health strategies into the overall medical treatment plan, optimizing both the psychological and physical health outcomes for patients.
