Mis-implementation of evidence-based behavioural health practices in primary care
Multi-level determinants contributed to EBP mis-implementation in FQHCs, limiting the ability of these health systems to benefit from knowledge exchange. To minimize mis-implementation, knowledge exchange strategies should be designed around common, core barriers but also flexible enough to address a variety of site-specific contextual factors and should be tailored to relevant audiences such as providers, patients, and/or leadership

The Emergency Department Patient Experience of Care Discharged to Community Survey was designed to measure patient experience in the ED setting. OBJECTIVES: Describe results from the Emergency Department Patient Experience of Care Discharged to Community Survey including respondent characteristics and …
Using Indirect Estimates Based on Name and Census Tract to Improve the Efficiency of Sampling Matched Ethnic Couples from Marriage License Data
For many sampling applications where study goals require oversampling by race/ethnicity, self-reported race/ethnicity is unavailable. We describe a new method that allows oversampling on the basis of indirectly estimated race/ethnicity when name and address information are available. We adapt a Bayesian method for imputing self-reported race/ethnicity from surname and residential address information for use with marriage license application data …

Provider-related Barriers to Rapid HIV Testing in U.S. Urban Non-profit Community Clinics, Community-based Organizations (CBOs) and Hospitals
Cost of OraQuick oral fluid rapid HIV testing at 35 community clinics and community-based organizations in the USA
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends the expanded use of rapid HIV antibody tests in community settings to increase the proportion of persons who are aware of their HIV status. The cost of providing rapid testing services in these settings is not known. We conducted a cost survey of non-profit community clinics and community-based organizations (CBOs). The final study sample for the cost analyses included 28 community clin…
Seven-Year Life Outcomes of Adolescent Offenders in Los Angeles
Objectives. We examined important life outcomes for adolescent offenders to describe how they were faring in young adulthood. Methods. We assessed 449 adolescent offenders (aged 13–17 years) in Los Angeles, CA, whose cases had been adjudicated by the Los Angeles Superior Court and who had been referred to group homes between February 1999 and May 2000. We used the Global Appraisal of Individual Needs to interview respondents at baseline and at 3,…
Scope of Rapid HIV Testing in Private Nonprofit Urban Community Health Settings in the United States
Objectives. We examined patterns of rapid HIV testing in a multistage national random sample of private, nonprofit, urban community clinics and community-based organizations to determine the extent of rapid HIV test availability outside the public health system. Methods. We randomly sampled 12 primary metropolitan statistical areas in 4 regions; 746 sites were randomly sampled across areas and telephoned. Staff at 575 of the sites (78%) were reac…
