Potential facilitators | Potential barriers |
---|---|
Institutional “buy in” to integrate PCs and licensed clinicians via financial support and stakeholder engagement | Need for specialized onsite supervision and oversight of staff to enhance model implementation |
Clarity in program mission | Unclear workflows, roles and responsibilities among team members |
Positive integration in EDa due to the model filling the gap in ED substance specific interventions (i.e., dedicated staff to relieve ED staff strain) | Hiring and retaining PCs |
Staff’s willingness to integrate and work collaboratively as a team | Navigating logistics of PCsb and clinicians consistently engaging all patients due to ED time and workflow demands |
Variability and limited training for PCs in this specific ED role |
