With the increasing amount of substance use-related health conditions in the United States, it is important for rehabilitation science professionals to receive screening and prevention training.
To describe and examine the preliminary effectiveness of a novel educational program, Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment Plus (SBIRT-Plus), that combines traditional SBIRT training with new modules for cannabis, stimulant, and opioid use.
Prospective, cohort design.
Academic institution.
One hundred eighty-one rehabilitation science graduate students.
SBIRT-Plus curriculum.
Outcomes included satisfaction with training, perception of interprofessional training, attitudes, knowledge, and stigma, as assessed with the Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale, Alcohol and Alcohol Problems Perception Questionnaire, Drug and Drug Problems Perception Questionnaire, Knowledge Screening Scale, and two stigma instruments.
Most students (>80%) expressed satisfaction with their training, would recommend the training to a colleague, and believed that the training would influence and change the way they practiced with patients at risk for substance use disorders. Students' attitudes and knowledge increased from pre- to post-training, and stigma perceptions were significantly reduced.
SBIRT-Plus is an evidence-based interprofessional training that is feasible to implement in graduate-level education programs. Integrating SBIRT-Plus into professional graduate programs may be an optimal and low-cost model for training rehabilitation health care professionals. Plain-Language Summary: Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment Plus (SBIRT-Plus) is an evidence-based interprofessional training that can be easily adopted in curricula to train professional students about the importance of screening for substance use disorders.
随着美国与物质使用相关的健康问题的日益增多,康复科学专业人员接受筛查和预防培训非常重要。
描述并检验一种新型教育项目的初步效果,该项目将传统的 SBIRT 培训与新的大麻、兴奋剂和阿片类药物使用模块相结合,称为 Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment Plus (SBIRT-Plus)。
前瞻性队列设计。
学术机构。
181 名康复科学研究生。
SBIRT-Plus 课程。
结果包括培训满意度、对跨专业培训的感知、态度、知识和污名,使用跨专业学习准备量表、酒精和酒精问题感知问卷、药物和药物问题感知问卷、知识筛查量表和两个污名量表进行评估。
大多数学生(>80%)对他们的培训表示满意,会向同事推荐培训,并认为培训将影响并改变他们与有物质使用障碍风险的患者的实践方式。学生的态度和知识从培训前到培训后都有所提高,污名感知显著降低。
SBIRT-Plus 是一种基于证据的跨专业培训,在研究生教育计划中实施是可行的。将 SBIRT-Plus 纳入专业研究生课程可能是培训康复保健专业人员的最佳和低成本模式。
SBIRT-Plus(筛选、简短干预和转介治疗加)是一种基于证据的跨专业培训,可以很容易地纳入课程,培训专业学生了解筛查物质使用障碍的重要性。
