NaRCAD spent January 12th and 13th, 2015 with the enthusiastic and talented public health professionals of the San Francisco Department of Public Health (SFDPH), teaching them the principles and practice of AD.  As with our prior trainings, the main goal was to ensure that trainees can understand and effectively practice AD techniques. This collaboration with SFDPH served as our first “on the road” trai
ning, providing an opportunity for our staff and facilitators to look closely at how to customize AD training to meet the needs of public health workers.

The SFDPH participants are developing and implementing programs to address needs in several important areas, including immunization programs, viral hepatitis outreach, HIV screening, reducing the risk of opioid overdose, and perinatal care. Like many of our prior trainees, this group was eager to learn about how to adapt the innovative, service-delivery model of AD to improve health outcomes by communicating effectively with front-line clinicians.

Throughout the training, SFDPH trainees and NaRCAD staff joined in brainstorming ways to implement novel strategies and techniques in their respective clinical areas to strengthen program successes, expand impact, and achieve long-term practice changes in San Francisco.

With academic detailing in their arsenal of intervention tools to change clinician behavior for the better, we look forward to seeing the ways in which our partners at SFDPH will improve health outcomes for the people of San Francisco.
