    Criteria for Certificate Accreditation?

    The heart and soul of NIMHANS ECHO is a collaborative case discussion where participants learn from both hub experts and peers. Through weekly case-based mentoring, healthcare providers build confidence and skills to manage complex addiction cases in their own communities.

    As a byproduct of this learning and knowledge transfer, the NIMHANS Digital Academy Board of Studies has kindly approved this as a "Certificate professional development course". 

    Please go through the curriculum carefully, and all the criteria have to be fulfilled. Now, if you find that at this point your work commitment does not allow this, you may explore nimhanselearning.org, a self-paced learning module.

    What type of clinical cases will be useful for this course and increase the chance of getting into this ECHO certificate program?

    This is an advanced course and hence it is expected to have complex cases, for example, a patient with cannabis, opioids, stimulants, benzodiazepines, synthetic drugs, comorbid psychiatric conditions, special populations like adolescents, females, etc. Even any cases, where you have reviewed for long-term follow up can also be useful

    These cases will make the discussion more meaningful for all of us in this "all teach and all learn model."

    Enrollment Process

    This is a two-step process

    Step 1: Case submission by filling out the form below. Just submitting case does not automatically qualify enrollment.

    Step 2: Once your case submission gets selected, you will get confirmation to submit nominal fees of 5200 INR (4800+ 400 INR inclusive of GST) via a link to the Director of NIMHANS.

    Step 3: Once 60 slots are over, the system will automatically close. At this point, we have limited faculty and resource person capacity to accommodate all.

    The course will commence on November 14th, 2025, weekly every Friday from 2:30 PM to 4:00PM and video presence is a must

    Why fees?

    All the hub team involved in this programme are donating their time and none of them have taken any money/remuneration for the same. The fees is to make the learning material available for you via LMS free, cost of technology like slido, LMS, AI, content creation, HIPAA-compliant Jotform for case submission, etc.

    In this section, our goal is to capture the individual's personality before the onset of the illness (mental illness, including substance use disorders). The description should ideally include their personality in several aspects, including work, family life, friendships, etc. Illustrative anecdotes and detailed statements may be included if deemed necessary. What we aim to achieve with this description is to picture the individual as holistically as possible. CLICK HERE for a collection of hints to help with the elicitation. Covering all the items listed during the first interview may not be possible. However, an attempt can be made, and more information may come to light in subsequent contacts. You can consider adding Externalizing or Internalizing symptoms. Moer about these at Addiction rx app Assess section

    MENTAL STATUS EXAMINATION

    A systematically conducted mental status examination is an important component of case-taking.

    It is essential to record the observations correctly, and whenever positive findings are obtained, they should be described in detail.

    It is inadequate to say `delusions present’ or `hallucinations.’

    MSE has to be repeated several times during the illness to know the evolution of symptoms, the effectiveness of treatment, etc.

    The time frame covered by the MSE is restricted to the hour of observation but extends longer. The finding of an MSE can be extended for a week.

    While the following account highlights the major components of MSE, details should be obtained from other sources cited.

    For a video demonstration on MSE, click on the links in the bracket (VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, VIDEO 3). CLICK HERE for definitions related to various terms in MSE. CLICK HERE for MSE proforma.

    Description as complete, accurate, and life-like as possible of the observations of ward staff and your own. The following points may be considered, though not exclusively. Inquiry about how to spend the day, eating, sleeping, cleanliness in general, self-care, hair, and dress. Behavior towards other patients, doctors, and nursing staff: does the patient look ill? Note whether the patient is fully conscious, stuporous, or comatose; is he in touch with his surroundings? Is the patient relaxed, tense, restless, slow, or hesitant? How does he respond to various requirements and situations? Are there abnormal responses to external events? Can his attention be held or diverted? Is the patient cooperative? Can adequate rapport be established? Does the patient maintain good eye contact? Does the patient’s behavior suggest that he is oriented/disoriented? Note the presence of any tics on mannerisms. Note the presence of any catatonic phenomena.
