VIRTUAL: SBIRT for Risky Health Behaviors (6/12/2024 & 6/13/2024 Virginia Home Visitors ONLY)
JUN 12, 2024
9:00 am EDT
The training takes place from 9:00-12:00 on BOTH days, June 12th and 13th. The Zoom link for this virtual training will be provided several days prior to the training. If registration is FULL, please contact ShaCoria Shelton (sshelton@earlyimpactva.org) to be added to the waitlist.
The Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment tool guides the home visitor in assisting clients with both immediate feedback on potentially harmful behavior and a longer-term solution through referral to additional treatment or resources beyond what the home visitor can provide. This training explains the use of the tool and teaches how best to do a brief intervention and how to use screening tools including Virginia’s Behavioral Health Risks Screening Tool for Women of Childbearing Age.
Participants will describe the reasons why Home Visitors should screen women for substance use, intimate partner violence, and mental health concerns, practice tips and techniques that can be used when screening as well as learn how to provide a “brief intervention.”
