What this research studies
This research focuses on enhancing the implementation of digital therapeutics designed to support individuals with substance use disorders (SUDs) and co-occurring disorders (CODs). It aims to provide education, training, and resources to healthcare providers and stakeholders to facilitate the adoption of these digital solutions in clinical practice. By identifying barriers to implementation and promoting awareness, the project seeks to improve access to effective digital treatments. The initiative will also involve collaboration with a Stakeholder Advisory Board to tailor dissemination strategies based on community needs.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this research are individuals diagnosed with substance use disorders or co-occurring disorders who may benefit from digital therapeutic interventions.
Not a fit: Patients who do not have substance use disorders or co-occurring disorders may not receive any benefit from this research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could significantly improve access to effective digital therapies for patients struggling with substance use and co-occurring disorders.
How similar studies have performed: Previous research has shown promise in the implementation of digital therapeutics for similar conditions, indicating a potential for success in this approach.
