Winter Haven Hospital's First Psychology Interns Help to Expand Care to Underserved

Two students are the first FSU College of Medicine psychology interns to join Winter Haven Hospital as part of an American Psychological Association-accredited Doctoral Psychology Internship Program. The internship program is the result of the 2018 Polk County health needs assessment, which highlighted the need for mental health services, especially in Winter Haven and the eastern part of the county. It is a collaboration between the Winter Haven Hospital Foundation and Centerstone, a health system focused on providing mental health and substance use disorder treatments.

Joel Thomas, president and CEO of the Winter Haven Hospital Foundation, helped initiate the internship program.
