Healthcare Operations & Consulting Externship

This externship explores how care coordination work in acute mental health settings can be designed, analyzed, and communicated as a customer-centric operational system. Externs study the case manager’s role at IMH to understand how workflows shape patient experience, surface hidden risks, and make invisible coordination work visible. Through structured analysis, process mapping, and dashboard prototyping, externs learn how operational clarity supports continuity of care, safety, and institutional decision-making.

Overview

During my Healthcare Operations & Consulting Externship at the Institute of Mental Health, I examined care coordination in acute mental health settings. I analyzed the role of case managers and how workflows impact patient experiences, identified hidden risks, and enhanced visibility of coordination efforts. My work involved structured analysis, process mapping, and developing dashboard

Healthcare Operations & Consulting Externship

What I've accomplished

I produced a stakeholder map and a role-summary document that documented case manager responsibilities, workflow touchpoints, pain points, and observations about transition planning and caregiver burden.

Project breakdown

The project examined a case manager role in mental healthcare, mapped stakeholders and workflows, and summarized responsibilities and pain points. It produced a stakeholder map and a role-summary document, and noted insights on transition planning and caregiver burden.
