To date, such evaluations have emphasized system and provider factors. This study is a preliminary evaluation of whether a novel patient-facing measure, the Primary Care Behavioral Health Provider Adherence Questionnaire-Patient Version (PPAQ-Patient), can provide insight into adherence to the Primary Care Behavioral Health (PCBH) model of integrated primary care. Survey data were collected from 281 veterans who received PCBH care. Exploratory factor analyses evaluated the data structure.

In recent years, researchers and practitioners have addressed these gaps by task-sharing evidence-based mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) interventions to nonspecialist community providers. Supervision and training approaches are intended to prepare nonspecialists to deliver evidence-based interventions with quality. However, there is still little research exploring nonspecialist experiences with training and supervision and how, if at all, their training and supervision experiences result in fidelity and competence in delivering the intervention. This qualitative study uses data from a cluster-randomized trial of a family strengthening and violence prevention program in Rwanda, known as Sugira Muryango. In semi-structured interviews, the nonspecialists provided examples of using skills such as rapport-building, empathy, and active listening to deliver Sugira Muryango effectively. Because nonspecialists were serving in their own communities, they found that it was easier to earn trust with friends and neighbors, and this facilitated effective delivery of Sugira Muryango. Nonspecialists discussed how training, monthly supervision, in-person monitoring visits, and the use of the manual and audio recorders equipped them to deliver Sugira Muryango with quality. Nonspecialists also provided examples of barriers to quality of delivery, including supervisor lack of availability, delayed compensation, and technology issues. Preparedness was consistent across gender; however, nonspecialists serving in a better-resourced district had previous experiences delivering evidence-based interventions and felt more prepared at the beginning of Sugira Muryango.</p>","PeriodicalId":49040,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Behavioral Health Services & Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142330681","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Approximately one-third of anxiety diagnoses assigned by mental health providers in outpatient settings are unspecified. The tendency of many providers to use an unspecified anxiety diagnosis may negatively impact the provision of evidence-based treatments for specific anxiety disorders. This study examines the perspectives of mental health providers working in an integrated and stepped health care system, asking how their roles and responsibilities shape their practices related to diagnosing specific anxiety disorders. The authors conducted semi-structured interviews with 32 Veteran Health Administration (VHA) mental health providers to understand their perspectives on diagnosing anxiety disorders. Matrix analysis was used to identify different roles and responsibilities articulated. Thematic analysis was used to highlight themes across providers' discussion of their roles in diagnosing and treating patients. The results show that, for most providers, assigning a specific diagnosis is a component of duties but rarely their focus. Second, it is unclear in which clinic setting a specific anxiety diagnosis should be made. Finally, among different types of mental health professionals, there is no clear designation on who should be providing a specific anxiety diagnosis. Altogether, results indicate that many providers feel making a specific diagnosis for anxiety is the responsibility of others-either those in other clinic settings or with other credentials. Findings call for clearer guidelines that specify individual clinician accountability for obtaining a specific anxiety diagnosis in a team-based environment.</p>","PeriodicalId":49040,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Behavioral Health Services & Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142299345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is a secondary analysis of qualitative data derived from focus groups with 53 youth ages 13 to 18 years and 18 youth-serving providers conducted in the USA between 2021 and 2022. The results describe theory-informed strategies that are important to consider when constructing effective substance use prevention messaging for youth, including preferences around key communication framework constructs, including sources, content, channels, and context. An element that emerged across the communication constructs was the saliency of \"connection\" in youth substance use prevention messaging content.

A total of 136 patients receiving outpatient treatment for comorbid substance use and mental health disorders completed self-report questionnaires on their psychiatric symptoms, substance use, and treatment engagement (i.e., frequency, length, and helpfulness of phone and video sessions with a mental health counselor, psychiatrist, or primary care provider) in the past month between November 2020 and March 2021. Results showed that COVID-fear was significantly associated with psychiatric symptom severity, but not substance use risk. Additionally, perceived helpfulness of phone counseling sessions moderated the associations between COVID-fear and global psychiatric symptom severity, such that COVID-fear and global psychiatric symptom severity were positively associated when perceived helpfulness was low, and not associated if perceived helpfulness was high.

In Study 1, 61 public mental health therapists completed an online survey to identify session planning barriers and facilitators, current practices, and desired planning supports. In Study 2, nine therapists who ranked a session planning tool as a top choice support in Study 1 participated in two focus groups to elaborate on their survey responses and provide feedback on three session planning tool prototypes. Study 1 survey respondents cited multi-level barriers and facilitators to session planning.
