SUMMARY:PSAN Recovery Speaker Series - Massachusetts General Brigham Hospital’s Center of Excellence for Psychosocial and Systemic Research (COE)
DESCRIPTION:The Massachusetts General Brigham Hospital’s Center of Excellence for Psychosocial and Systemic Research (COE) aims to enhance the lives of those with mental health challenges through community-based projects. The COE focuses on research\, psychoeducation\, and addressing healthcare disparities while implementing psychosocial interventions to improve individual and community well-being. \nIn 2018\, the Peer Specialist Team at the COE conducted a psychosocial needs assessment with mental health service users sampled from across Massachusetts. Listening group participants spoke about the benefits of peer support and a central theme that emerged was the clear need for more programs to include Certified Peer Specialist (CPS) services and better access to CPSs across the state. \nIn response\, the COE peer team organized four listening groups with Massachusetts CPSs to identify the challenges faced by peer specialists in various work environments\, along with corresponding recommendations\, with the goal of improving the working conditions\, effectiveness\, and satisfaction of CPSs across Massachusetts. \nFindings highlighted several areas where CPSs expressed a desire for improvement\, categorized into four key topics: \n\nOrganizational Culture: The values\, beliefs\, practices\, and behaviors that contribute to the overall success of CPSs in their work settings.\nResource Availability: Whether CPSs felt they had the necessary physical resources to perform their jobs effectively.\nTraining and Education: Whether\, after their initial certification\, CPSs felt prepared to fulfill their responsibilities and if they had access to opportunities for further growth through additional training and certification.\nRole Definition: Whether CPSs felt empowered to perform their duties as trained\, in accordance with the CPS Code of Ethics\, and if their non-peer colleagues acknowledged\, respected\, and understood the peer role.\n\nThe COE Peer Specialists will present on this Peer Integration Project\, followed by a discussion about the challenges Peer Specialists face\, and what subsequent recommendations can aid in the integration of Peer Support Specialists into larger healthcare systems and improve access to their services. \nPresenters for this talk from the COE include Valeria Chambers\, Ryan Markley\, Jacquie Martinez\, Anne Whitman\, Sandi Whitney Sarles \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://bostonmedicalcenter.zoom.us/j/96984874345 \nMeeting ID: 969 8487 4345\nOne tap mobile\n+16465588656\,\,96984874345# US (New York)\n+13017158592\,\,96984874345# US (Germantown) \nDial by your location\n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York)\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Germantown)
