Protected Roots Integrative Treatment Center

Basic Information

Organization and Responsibilities Description

At PRI, we take a holistic approach to patient care. We recognize the powerful connection between mental and physical health and are committed to providing integrative medicine options. Alongside traditional therapies, we offer evidence-based interventions focusing on mindfulness, stress reduction, lifestyle modifications, and complementary treatments. Academic medicine, with its rigorous research standards, plays a critical role in validating the efficacy of integrative approaches and establishing best practices. This approach empowers our patients to take an active role in their well-being and achieve optimal health outcomes.

Student responsibilities are as follows: Complete research paper on a topic relevant and useful to clinical care, maintain HIPAA, confidentiality, and privacy regarding any and all things observed and/or accessed during your time with us, attend scheduled days and times of shifts punctually, assist any and all staff in any and all work-related tasks during shift, after completion of contracted time, return/shred/delete permanently any and all materials (electronic and/or physical) related to PRI.

Students will have the opportunity to observe group activities, including leisure and group therapy. Students will be asked to provide assistance in areas such as setting up activities, helping to facilitate activities, light cleaning or administrative tasks, etc.
