Optimising allied health psychological treatments in primary health care: Piloting a randomised controlled trial of social worker training in focused psychological strategies (The SW-fps Study)
The SW-fps Study was part of a broader body of research which aims to improve access to evidence-based psychological treatments in primary health care. Over the last decade, major mental health reforms in Australia, such as the Better Outcomes and Better Access programs, have greatly increased community access to psychological treatments through a range of funding models designed to support provision of psychological treatments by allied health providers. More recently social workers, amongst other allied health professionals, are beginning to utilise the Medicare incentives to provide psychological treatments in primary mental health care.
