“…As early as 1896, Columbia University established the New York State Psychiatric Institute, one of the first institutions to incorporate teaching and research with the care of persons with mental illness (6). These collaborations, as in the case of the state hospital system in Maryland and the University of Maryland, have been utilized as a strategy to improve working conditions for psychiatrists in the public sector and enhance recruitment and retention (7).

This column describes the conceptualization and implementation of an innovative collaboration between Oregon State Hospital and Oregon Health and Science University that was created to address understaffing and improve the quality of care. The hospital created a forensic evaluation rotation to address the growing population of forensic patients, which created a valuable recruiting tool for the hospital. One of the authors, a recent recruit, provides a first-person account of his experience working within the collaboration. The model could be emulated by other public-sector facilities facing similar challenges with psychiatrist recruitment and retention.

The Emory University Fellowship in Community Psychiatry/Public Health is a unique training opportunity whose mission is to train future leaders in the arena of community psychiatry. To complement the recent description of the Public Psychiatry Fellowship of New York State Psychiatric Institute at Columbia University Medical Center, this report describes the key features of Emory's fellowship-its academic curriculum, practicum experiences, site visits and other opportunities for collaboration, and ongoing mentoring and career development. Congruencies between these four key features and the seven core elements of Columbia's fellowship are highlighted, as are several important differences. Such descriptions of innovative training programs in community and public psychiatry are essential in promoting excellence in education, which will translate into vital enhancements in programs, policy, and community-based approaches to mental health services.

“…Our 50 states, which provided the majority of the funding for care of the chronic and severely mentally ill, in turn, established programs such as those in one state (Maryland) which comprised case management and housing, community rehabilitation, carefully planned discharge of severely mentally ill patients to high quality community programs and state–university collaboration to recruit and retain high quality psychiatrists for the public system (12–15). Other states emphasized teams that conducted Programs of Assertive Community Treatment (PACT or ACT teams), medication availability, family organizations and blueprints for which patients should be treated in what settings.…”
