title: [Training program for clinical psychologists in general hospital settings].
abstract: Physicians in hospitals are so exhausted that mental healthcare providers other than physicians, such as psychologists, might be necessary. A clinical education program for psychologists in general hospitals has been developed. Applicants should be at Level 2 of Stoltenberg & McNeil's IDM (Integrated Development Model) model. Seven domains of objectives are introduced. Core competencies are multi-dimensional knowledge, understanding dynamics and collaborating, and communication skills with challenging patients. Sustainable education strategies and evaluation methods are discussed. A TV-based education program is useful for the purpose of acquiring general medical knowledge.
