Table 4 Quotes from participants corresponding with high and low survey scores
Survey rating | Clinician type | Examples |
|---|---|---|
Treatment plans for PTSD to meet patient needs Knowledge and training for identifying trauma and PTSD; treatments systematically meet the needs of patients | ||
High ICS Scores | IBH | “When we [IBH] go through the psychiatric review of symptoms, I always ask in the intake, ‘is there a traumatic event that you witnessed that is still upsetting you today?’” |
Low ICS scores | Primary care | “I think one of the challenges is that I don’t find that my colleagues in primary care are particularly trauma-literate, so I really believe that we have to do some more education for other staff in our clinic.” |
Primary care | “I have to say, my familiarity with PTSD is not as strong.” | |
Support for evidence-based practices Training, workshops, or materials about applying EBT for treatment; positive attitudes and champions for evidence based practice within clinics; integration between primary care and IBH | ||
High LIM scores | Primary care | “I think the community health workers would be very enthusiastic about it [manualized PTSD therapy].” |
Low LIM scores | IBH | “I think that we [IBH] are very siloed out in family medicine, kind of out of people’s radar.” |
Primary care | “Much of the energy has been focused on meeting what we [primary care] have to do…to deliver [PTSD] program[s] in the eyes of [state insurance programs]. There’s a tremendous amount of work left to be done, like optimizing care and delivery.” | |
