ISU Family Medicine Site Description
ISUFM is the principal outpatient teaching clinic for the family practice residency program at Idaho State University. The clinic has partnered with Health West Community Health Center, a federally qualified health center (FQHC) to provide clinical services to the area and is multidisciplinary in nature, also serving as a training site for clinical psychologists, clinical pharmacists, physician assistants, and nurses. The clinic provides primary medical care, including psychological services and integrated behavioral health services to a diverse population of individuals, families, children, teens, and seniors from all over Southeastern Idaho. ISUFM has a strong commitment to teaching and to providing services to our underserved population.
ISUFM also partners with the State Hospital South (SHS) in Blackfoot, ID to provide a more diverse training experience in an inpatient psychiatric setting. Interns will learn the forensic aspects as well as provide group therapy and conduct comprehensive psychological assessments in an interdisciplinary environment. Hence, interns completing this internship will be prepared to work in outpatient as well as inpatient integrative settings.
