Despite the difficult winter weather in Boston, NaRCAD has been off to a great start so far this year. We’ve been very excited to begin several new initiatives with terrific partners. As we move forward through 2015 and beyond, we invite those of you reading our newsletter and following us through our blog or on social media to reach out about working together on similar efforts.

Training academic detailers is a core part of our mission, and we continue to have full registrations for our Boston-based training sessions, telling us that there’s an interest and a demand for our training course. This year we were thrilled to take our training on the road for the first time, working with the San Francisco Department of Public Health on several new initiatives, focusing on diverse topics including overdose prevention, increasing use of vaccinations in pregnancy, and HIV screening and treatment.  This July, we’ll again deliver training outside of Boston, this time in Oklahoma to help support a new AHRQ-funded project aimed at improving care for cardiovascular risk factors in primary care.

We also created and launched a new workshop for the experienced group of academic detailers at Atrius Health here in Boston. Similarly to our 2-day techniques training, we used role play and interactive group discussion to help clinical pharmacists work on overcoming barriers and obstacles.  Interacting with Atrius’s dedicated group of outreach educators has all of us thinking about how academic detailers can best maintain and develop their skills over time, and we’re interested in hearing about how existing programs approach this challenge. If you have similar experiences to share, let us know—we’re always eager to share best practices with our network community of detailers, programs, and supporters.

We want to hear from you. Your ideas matter–tell us how you’d like to collaborate, create new opportunities for academic detailing, and improve quality of care and patient outcomes.
