View Award Description

Norton Sound Health Corporation's SBIRT and Medication-Assisted Treatment Practices for Rural Populations Utilizing Shelterand Sobering Services - Norton Sound Health Corporation’s (NSHC) Behavioral Health Services’ “SBIRT and Medication-Assisted Treatment Practices for Rural Populations Utilizing Shelter and Sobering Services” proposes to reduce regionally-prevalent substance misuse by screening for, promoting, and providing Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) services for a minimum of 150 unique homeless, and/or substance using Alaska Native adults ages 18 and older in Year One of the project by meeting people where they present most often outside of a traditional office and/or hospital setting. Targeted locations are NSHC’s Day Shelter and Sobering Center, co-located with Behavioral Health Services for ease in accessing necessary resources. Alaska’s Bering Strait Region of 9,869 people has high rates of substance misuse interfering with basic living needs. Resultant of misuse is lack of employment and housing, and a recidivist population moving through the correctional system that is disproportionately Alaska Native. A Shelter Recovery Coach and a Sobering Center Recover Coach will screen guests for substance misuse and refer for assessment for MAT. A Shelter Clinician will deliver screening, assessment, and treatment for those scoring positively on an SBIRT and will coordinate MAT services with providers. A Project Director will oversee activities and an Evaluator will analyze outcomes. To ensure patients are receiving the prescribed care necessary to enter and/or maintain recovery, project staff will maintain and update a registry of patients utilizing MAT so they may be tracked. A case manager will collaborate with the Shelter Clinician to maintain the registry and provide appropriate outreach for appointment reminders and coordination for resource referral. Project staff will coordinate and facilitate recovery services at the Day Shelter and Sobering Center through referrals and education on opioid use, substance misuse, and MAT. Educational materials on OUD and MAT services descriptions, processes, and availabilities will be on-hand. A regional population of 7,100 adults has access to services. Participation is expected to be 360 unique individuals accessing services with 130 individuals referred for MAT and 70 enrolling, all from throughout the region. At the conclusion, it is expected that participating individuals from the target populations will move into recovery, restore basic living needs (housing, employment), remain free from the prison system, and decrease dependency on emergency services.
