Permanent Supportive Housing Overdose Prevention

Sponsor: NYU Langone Health

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Permanent supportive housing (PSH), the gold standard intervention for ending chronic homelessness, has expanded rapidly across the U.S. in recent years. Due to a confluence of individual and environmental risk factors, PSH tenants face heightened risk for overdose. While evidence-based practices to prevent overdose exist, they have not been broadly implemented in PSH settings. This study will address this research to practice gap by studying the implementation of evidence-based practices to prevent overdose in 20 PSH buildings in New York. In a community-partnered stepped wedge randomized controlled trial, the investigators will study a package of implementation strategies that includes an implementation toolkit, tenant and staff implementation champions, limited practice facilitation, and learning collaboratives. Outcomes will be examined using surveys and qualitative interviews with PSH tenants and staff; observation; and analysis of Medicaid claims data.

CSH-Delivered Overdose Prevention Support

Corporation for Supportive Housing (CSH) will deliver technical support for overdose (OD) prevention in the participating PSH buildings using a package of core implementation strategies: PSH Overdose Prevention (POP) Toolkit (an implementation manual/blueprint for overdose prevention practices); Implementation Champions (staff and tenants in each PSH building will be selected as implementation champions who support implementation and sustainment of OD prevention practices in their buildings); practice facilitation (the practice facilitator \[a trained CSH employee\] will work with the tenant and staff champions in small group workshops and coaching sessions, building their capacity and supporting their work toward implementation of building OD prevention practices); learning collaboratives (PSH buildings starting the intervention at the same time will attend learning collaborative meetings).
