2017 AACVPR Annual Sessions
Breakout Presentation Accepted : “Anxiety in Your Cardiac Rehab Patients with and without Devices - Identification, Assessment, and Management”
Through my attendance to AACVPR 2016 and the psychosocial committees I have become part of, I have been exposed to policy and legislation of AACVPR and CMS models, as well as consultation with psychologists across the nation; pivotal in idea generation for clinic models and provision of services.

6. Next Steps
Incorporate training experiences within the integrated clinic for psychology interns
Current training is within Behavioral Medicine Clinic – interprofessional but not side-by-side integration.
Current barrier – funding (FTE for intern)
I did not attend AAMC conference for leadership, BUT
Acquired leadership roles within AACVPR
