Abstract
Gaps exist in the delivery of effective, culturally mindful treatment for trauma-related mental health problems, and providers who treat those problems in underresourced communities need more support. Adapting Project ECHO (Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes), the authors developed a virtual learning community to link mental health providers in Washington State with specialists in trauma recovery. Goals were to evaluate provider demand for trauma-specific training and the project's feasibility, acceptability, and initial impacts on providers' practice and well-being. The 26 participating providers showed demand for and engagement in the learning community and reported high satisfaction. Findings were mixed with respect to impact. Potential changes to increase future impact are discussed.
期刊介绍：
Psychiatric Services, established in 1950, is published monthly by the American Psychiatric Association. The peer-reviewed journal features research reports on issues related to the delivery of mental health services, especially for people with serious mental illness in community-based treatment programs. Long known as an interdisciplinary journal, Psychiatric Services recognizes that provision of high-quality care involves collaboration among a variety of professionals, frequently working as a team. Authors of research reports published in the journal include psychiatrists, psychologists, pharmacists, nurses, social workers, drug and alcohol treatment counselors, economists, policy analysts, and professionals in related systems such as criminal justice and welfare systems. In the mental health field, the current focus on patient-centered, recovery-oriented care and on dissemination of evidence-based practices is transforming service delivery systems at all levels. Research published in Psychiatric Services contributes to this transformation.
