Abstract |
Performs a feasibility study in which eight experienced ED nurses attempted to provide Screening and Brief Intervention (SBI) to as many of their patients as possible over a one-month period, using the ASSIST-Lite screening tool. Audits the patients' charts to see how many received the SBI. Uncovers an inverse correlation between the number of patients presenting to the ED and the number of screenings undertaken by the nurses, who were given semi-structured interviews. Details three themes: the nurses attitudes towards SBI, their working conditions, and the ED environment. |
