“…Fortunately, many aspects of this intervention may be easily reproducible outside of the study contexts. First, while the training component was uniquely crafted for this intervention, several suicide prevention training curricula for PCPs have been developed in recent years, including a face-to-face didactic training (American Association of Suicidology, 2009), self-study toolkit (Suicide Prevention Resource Center, 2009), and web-based interactive training (Biddle, 2011). Mental health professionals can further enhance their training in suicide assessment and intervention to facilitate better care in the primary care setting.…”

Primary care is an emerging setting for suicide prevention efforts. Psychologists can play a valuable role in not only consulting to primary care but also assisting with the management of suicidal youth. This article describes the Pennsylvania Youth Suicide Prevention in Primary Care model. After detailing the model, a brief study is reported whereby the intervention of primary care staff training, screening, and available services on referrals to the emergency department (ED) for evaluation and the rate of psychiatric hospitalization following psychiatric evaluation in the ED for these youth are examined. Results demonstrated a reduction in referrals to the ED in the year after the intervention compared to 3 years preintervention. Implications for mental health professionals working in primary care are discussed.

“… 13 Another is a web-based module designed for practicing PCPs and conducted with nurse practitioner and nurse midwife students. 14 The third resource directly targets residents; however, it was published in 2016 and is now outdated in relation to epidemiological data and validated screening tools. 15 With regard to other common pediatric B/MH conditions, Mian and colleagues described a video-based training for pediatric residents to improve identification and treatment of anxiety disorders in primary care settings.…”

Introduction Pediatric residents report behavioral or mental health (B/MH) assessment and treatment as a training gap and often feel ill-equipped to address these issues in clinical practice. We developed a novel interactive training program to improve resident confidence in managing common pediatric B/MH conditions. Methods The Be ExPeRT curriculum comprised a half-day interactive seminar on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, anxiety, depression, and suicidality followed by monthly case-based discussions. Content included didactic material, role-play, and case discussion. The training was optional and open to pediatric or combined medicine-pediatrics trainees. Results Twenty-three residents (70% female) participated in four separate seminars over 2 years. Of the participants attending the seminars, 17 (74%) completed the presurvey, and 16 (70%) completed the postsurvey. Statistically significant improvement was noted in comfort treating major depressive disorder (41% pre, 94% post, p = .002), suicide risk (29% pre, 94% post, p < .001), and anxiety (24% pre, 94% post, p < .001) following program participation. Twelve (75%) of the 16 participants completing the survey rated the training in the top 5%–10% with respect to other resident learning experiences. Discussion We developed this curriculum to enhance trainee knowledge and comfort in addressing common pediatric B/MH conditions in primary care. Significant improvement was noted in self-reported comfort in treating major depressive disorder, suicide risk, and anxiety, and the program was well received. The curriculum can be adapted for use in any training program for primary care providers to provide B/MH education that may be lacking or supplement existing programming.
