Thinking outside the box will be helpful for this project. We are remotely located and have limited resources. We are looking for ways to engage with our patients, perhaps not just through conventional social means (i.e., how do we communicate with patients who do not have access to the internet or have a phone?). |

The intern will first investigate health outcomes related to environmental infrastructure. A literature review will be completed and then a summary of the relationship between communities having these services and improved health outcomes. The internship also involves a literature review evaluating the health risks of open dumps, which are areas of uncontrolled dumping of solid wastes. The intern will also evaluate an agency data set regarding open dumps on American Indian and Alaska Native lands and make recommendations of strategies to improve open dump data quality. Finally, the intern will review the agency guide regarding the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and related laws, to determine if there are any required updates since the 2007 publication of this guide. |

Four Corners Regional Health Center is a rural health clinic in northeastern Arizona. Most of our patients are bilingual (Navajo/English), but some primarily communicate in Navajo. Explaining complex medical conditions is a challenge, but it is important that our patients understand their conditions in order to be engaged in their treatment decisions. This project is for the optometry clinic. We are working on a bilingual video about cataracts. Possible uses are playing in our waiting area and sharing on social media. Fluent/Native proficiency in Navajo is required. |

IHS must ensure environmental requirements are met in part by reviewing potential impacts. The current system uses a paper checklist to evaluate projects and there is consideration of updating to an automated process. This project involves development of a prototype system that would help determine whether an Environmental Assessment was needed for proposed IHS projects and address the potential for impacts to environmental resources such as floodplains, endangered species, wetlands, and historic sites. The automated tool would ask questions, store information, and require the upload of additional information depending on the answers given with a goal of ensuring environmental resources were considered in the process of constructing or maintaining health facilities. |

The virtual intern will engage in administrative and research activities that support Tribal Actions Plans, Youth Regional Treatment Centers, and other IHS programs addressing alcohol and substance abuse.
Background:
The Indian Alcohol and Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act of 1986, as amended by the Tribal Law and Order Act of 2010, requires the Office of Indian Alcohol and Substance Abuse (OIASA) to work with other federal agencies and offices that oversee federally recognized tribes in developing a Tribal Action Plan (TAP). The TAP coordinates resources and programs to help tribes achieve their goals for preventing and treating substance use disorders.
The IHS provides recurring funding to 12 Youth Regional Treatment Centers (YRTCs) to address the ongoing issues of substance abuse and co-occurring disorders among American Indian and Alaska Native youth. Through education and culture-based prevention initiatives, evidence-based and practice-based models of treatment, family strengthening, and recreational activities, youth can overcome their challenges and recover their lives to become healthy, strong, and resilient leaders in their communities. The YRTCs provide a range of clinical services rooted in a culturally relevant, holistic model of care. These services include: clinical evaluation; substance abuse education; group, individual, and family psychotherapy; art therapy; adventure-based counseling; life skills; medication management or monitoring; evidence-based/practice-based treatment; aftercare relapse prevention; and post-treatment follow-up services.
Activities may include, but are not limited to:
• Keeping abreast of Tribal Action Plan (TAP) information and offering support activities
where appropriate;
• Assistance in Youth Regional Treatment Center (YRTC) data collection;
• IHS alcohol and substance abuse website updates as needed; and
• Other alcohol and substance abuse prevention, treatment, and aftercare related
administrative and research duties as assigned. |
