“…In the current research, psychologists discussed broadening the perspectives of the medical team and bridging new and insightful perspectives through inperson communication and team collaboration With respect to existing ethical tensions found in rural practice, the IBHC setting added additional complexity. For example, in addition to the issues raised in existing literature (Campbell et al, 2003;Schank, 1998;Schank, Helbok, Haldeman, & Gallardo, 2010;Sulkowski, 2017), managing dual relationships for rural psychologists in IBHC settings was extended to include grappling with whether to treat colleagues (e.g., doctors and nurses) in the setting. Moreover, extending the work of Schank et al (2010) and Sulkowski (2017) on stretching of competence, along with being a flexible generalist, psychologists in this study discussed the need to be vigilant in consultation with doctors wanting to discuss medication recommendations or other issues outside the psychologist's scope of practice.…”
