Strengthening Implementation Science to Enhance and Accelerate Its Contributions to Improved Health

Brian Mittman, PhD

Berkeley Franz, PhD
Ohio University

ABSTRACT:
The field of implementation science has demonstrated significant progress and contributions in expanding the use of evidence-based practices in routine care settings during the past 4 decades. Yet leaders in the field have also issued important calls to action, highlighting the remaining challenges we face in fully achieving our mission to both achieve implementation goals and facilitate more rapid improvement in patient and population health. This presentation begins with a broad overview of innovations in research practices that are needed to enhance and accelerate the field’s impact followed by an in-depth discussion of two proposed changes: strengthening both stakeholder engagement and study follow-up planning.

Four Ways to Conceptualize and Study Policy in Implementation Science Research

Jonathan Purtle, DrPH, MSc
New York University

ABSTRACT:
This presentation will offer a typology of four ways to conceptualize policy in implementation science research: 1) Policy as something to adopt, 2) Policy as something to implement, 3) Policy as context to understand, and 4) Policy as strategy to use. Examples will be provided of studies that have conceptualized policy in these different ways in the area of behavioral health.

Increasing the Uptake of Effective Addiction Health Services via Dissemination and Implementation Science

Sara Becker, PhD
Northwestern University

ABSTRACT:
This presentation will describe a program of research focused on increasing the uptake of effective health services for persons with or at risk of substance use disorders. At the end of the presentation, attendees will be able to: (a) define key concepts in dissemination and implementation science; (b) describe efforts to increase access to addiction health services using an array of implementation frameworks, strategies, and outcomes; and (c) identify key resources for integrating dissemination and implementation science principles into their own work.
