  • De-escalation training across crisis-response sectors

    Open AccessPatrycja Szkudlarek, Elizabeth Lin et al.ARTICLEHealth & Justice2026

    There is growing concern about violent or harmful encounters between crisis-intervention professionals and practitioners and individuals experiencing acute mental health crises, including those presenting with severe behavioural disturbances related to mental health concerns and/or substance use. In response, healthcare institutions and regulatory bodies are increasingly mandating "de-escalation" training. However, no universally accepted standar…

    Open AccessChrista Orchard, Elizabeth Lin et al.ARTICLESSM - Population Health2024

    This study provided an estimate of the contribution of employment to the observed differences in multidimensional mental health between men and women. This adds to the literature by including a broader range of mental health indicators than disorders alone, and by formalizing the causal framework used to study these relationships

  • Assessing care-giving demands, resources and costs of family/friend caregivers for persons with mental health disorders

    Open AccessElizabeth Lin, Janet Durbin et al.ARTICLEHealth & Social Care in the…2018

    As mental health (MH) care has shifted from institutional settings to the community, families and friends are responsible for providing the majority of the care at home. The substantial literature on the adverse effects experienced by caregivers has focused mainly on psychological morbidity. Less attention has been paid to how caregivers for persons with MH disorders interact with larger social systems and the impacts of factors such as financial…

  • Improving Confidence for Self Care in Patients with Depression and Chronic Illnesses

    Evette J Ludman, Evette Ludman et al.ARTICLEBehavioral Medicine2013

    The aim of this study was to examine whether patients who received a multicondition collaborative care intervention for chronic illnesses and depression had greater improvement in self-care knowledge and efficacy, and whether greater knowledge and self-efficacy was positively associated with improved target outcomes. A randomized controlled trial with 214 patients with comorbid depression and poorly controlled diabetes and/or coronary heart disea…

  • Collaborative Care for Patients with Depression and Chronic Illnesses

    Wayne J Katon, Wayne Katon et al.ARTICLENew England Journal of Medicine2010

    BACKGROUND: Patients with depression and poorly controlled diabetes, coronary heart disease, or both have an increased risk of adverse outcomes and high health care costs.

  • Diabetes and Poor Disease Control

    Wayne Katon, Joan Russo et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2009

    OBJECTIVE: To hypothesize that patients with comorbid depression and diabetes and poor disease control will have poorer adherence to disease control medication and less likelihood of physician intensification of treatment. Many patients with diabetes fail to achieve American Diabetes Association Guidelines for glycemic, blood pressure and lipid control. Depression is a common comorbidity and may affect disease control through adverse effects on a…

  • Improving Depression Care for Older, Minority Patients in Primary Care

    Patricia A Areán, L Ayalon et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2005Referências: 33

    OBJECTIVE: Few older minorities receive adequate treatment of depression in primary care. This study examines whether a collaborative care model for depression in primary care is as effective in older minorities as it is in nonminority elderly patients in improving depression treatment and outcomes. STUDY DESIGN: A multisite randomized clinical trial of 1801 older adults comparing collaborative care for depression with treatment as usual in prima…

  • Influence of Patient Attachment Style on Self-care and Outcomes in Diabetes

    Paul Ciechanowski, Joan Russo et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2004

    OBJECTIVE: Difficulties collaborating with providers and important others may adversely influence self-management in patients with diabetes. We predicted that dismissing attachment style, characterized by high interpersonal self-reliance and low trust of others, would be associated with poorer self-management in patients with diabetes. METHODS: A population-based mail survey was sent to all patients with diabetes from nine primary care clinics of…

  • Using Administrative Data to Measure Ambulatory Mental Health Service Provision in Primary Care

    Leah S Steele, Richard H Glazier et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2004Referências: 9

    OBJECTIVE: We sought to determine the accuracy of administrative data for identifying mental health service provision in primary care.
