• Implementing SBIRT: Lessons learned - SBIRT Implementation requires good planning and training that goes beyond lecturing. While there should be standards with regards to conducting SBI, how SBI is implemented needs to be a team effort. Furthermore, there needs to be ongoing support provided for those new to SBI. Some of our practices have been doing SBIRT for over 4 years and they still call when they hit a roadblock. In addition, it helps to know there is someone else available to provide ongoing supervision. (Posted by MjsGray on 30 Apr 2008)
