Patient and Stakeholder Advisory Committee
(PASAC)
PASAC Structure• 12 members came from community groups,
religious organizations, health support groups, primary care practices, and include LVHN health system primary care provider, specialist, and administrator representatives.
• Project staff and members met 3 X a year at a convenient health system location
• Members included veterans, clergy, patient support, housewives, nurses, and a diabetes support group president.
• Meetings were facilitated by a bilingual moderator and were conducted in both English and Spanish.
PASAC Function/Feeling• Members provided input on study materials,
intervention methods, and strategies for reaching the population.
• Members were part of the research team, with the role of advising the staff on realities of working with the population and the health system.
• Members felt an additional role was to learn and educate members of the Hispanic community about cancer screening.
• Members viewed themselves as an extension of the community, with a duty to share their knowledge to guide research and to improve the community health.

Findings• Overall CRC screening adherence was almost 5 times
greater in the DSNI Group than in the SI Group
• FIT screening and colonoscopy screening adherence were more than 4 times greater and almost 9 times greater, respectively, in the DSNI Group than in the SI Group
• Forward change in CRC screening decision stage was almost 5 times more likely in the DSNI Group than in the SI Group

Conclusions
• A patient-centered CRC screening intervention for Hispanic primary care patients in the LVHN was successfulo A decision support and navigation interention (DSNI) had
a substantial and statistically significant positive impact on patient CRC screening adherence and readiness to screen compared to a standard intervention (SI)
• Infrastructure and research are needed to support the implementation of the DSNI and other evidence-based interventions in the LVHN and other health systems.

Strategies to Address the Behavioral Health Needs of Underserved Communities
• Increase Peer Support Services• A Peer Support Worker is someone who uses
his or her lived experience of recovery from mental illness and/or addiction, plus uses skills he or she learned in formal training, to deliver services in behavioral health settings to promote mind-body recovery and resilience. SAMHSA –HRSA Center for Integrated Health Solutions. Who are Peer Providers?
November 15, 2017
ANNUAL MEETING | #PCORI2017

Peer Support Worker in NM• In NM, the peer support worker training
requires 40 hrs. of classroom training over 5-days followed by a certification exam through the NM Credentialing Board for Behavioral Health Professionals.
• Training topics include professionalism, ethics, components of recovery and resiliency, mental health and substance use disorders, communication skills and stress management.

Effectiveness of Peer Support WorkersIncluding peers as part of behavioral health has been associated with:
- Increased engagement- Reduced inpatient hospitalizations- Improved relationships with providers- Higher levels of empowerment- Higher levels of activation- Higher levels of hopefulness and recovery
(Chinman et al., 2014)

• Family and Community• Exposure to substances• Abuse• Genetic/Family History• Stressful/Negative Life
Events• Trauma Exposure• Peer Pressure• Depressed Mood• Low Self-Esteem• Delinquent Behavior• Disrupted Family
Environments• Lack of Coping Skills
“The more I use, the more I won’t
feel anything. The pain is so bad you just want to die.”
Quote from A Trauma SurvivorSeeking Safety Manual, (Najavits, L. 2002)
ANNUAL MEETING | #PCORI2017
35November 15, 2017
-Seeking Safety (SS), is an evidence-based, manualized, present-focused counseling model to help people attain safety from trauma and/or substance abuse. Mostly delivered in group format.-Research is based on using trained clinicians to implement the treatment, including, counselors, social workers, psychologists.
Is peer-delivered SS as effective as SS delivered by clinicians?
ANNUAL MEETING | #PCORI2017
36
Primary Objective & Hypothesis
November 15, 2017
• Determine the effectiveness of peer-led SS groups compared to clinical-led SS groups in decreasing substance use and PTSD symptoms and improving coping skills, overall mental health & physical health.
Hypothesis:• Peer-led SS groups would be AS EFFECTIVE as clinician-
led SS groups in decreasing substance use and PTSD symptoms and improving coping skills, overall mental health & physical health.

Dissemination and Implementation (D&I)
November 15, 2017
• PL-Seeking Safety is covered under group recovery services (Medicaid)
• Research on barriers to D&I has identified lack of skilled personnel as one of the most important to address to improve implementation of evidence-based practices
• Development of a Peer Guide as a Supplement to the SS Manual
• Future research needs to address ways to improve physical health among those receiving services for mental health and/or substance abuse
