Abstract: Objectives: Unmet health-related social needs can influence health outcomes and increase healthcare utilization. There is growing interest in integrating social needs care into healthcare delivery. We conducted an assessment of health-related social needs in an academic adult primary care practice in San Francisco, California. Methods: We recruited a random convenience sample of adult English-, Chinese- or Spanish-speaking patients from clinic waiting rooms at the study sites to complete a self-administered, anonymous survey. We used the Accountable Health Communities Health-Related Social Needs Screening Tool for these domains: housing instability, food insecurity, transportation problems, utility help needs, interpersonal safety, financial strain, and family/community support. We conducted univariate and multivariate analyses adjusting for age, sex and survey language. Results: 679 patients completed the survey. Respondents were 57% female and mean age of 58 ± 18 years old. 54% of patients had at least one unmet health-related social need. The most prevalent health-related social needs were financial strain (35%), at least one issue with housing conditions (27%), and food insecurity (23%). Respondents completing the survey in Spanish had significantly higher odds of reporting food insecurity (AOR 3.97, 95%CI 1.86, 8.46), transportation problems (AOR 3.13, 95%CI 1.32, 7.43), and need for support with activities of daily living (AOR 4.58, 95%CI 2.04,
10.25) than respondents completing the survey in English. Conclusions: The burden of unmet health-related social needs was considerable in this adult primary care practice. These findings can support a case for integrating health-related social need screening and social care in the delivery of primary care in the United States to advance health equity.

5. Addressing Nursing Students' Understanding of Health Equity and
Social Determinants of Health: An Innovative Teaching-Learning
Strategy.
Swan, Beth Ann; Giordano, Nicholas A. Nursing Education Perspectives (Wolters Kluwer Health), Sep/Oct2023; 44(5): 318-320. (3p) (Journal Article) ISSN: 1536-5026 AN: 170059485
Abstract: Immersive learning opportunities across care settings enhance nursing students' understanding of the environmental, social, cultural, and policy factors that influence patients' health (e.g., social determinants of
health) and care utilization. Hotspotting happens when care teams visit patients with frequent hospital admissions to coordinate outpatient care.
However, geographic limitations may inhibit the delivery of hotspotting learning opportunities available to students. Delivering immersive hotspotting opportunities over virtual reality helps to overcome this barrier. This overview summarizes the design and implementation of a virtual reality hotspotting experience designed to aid students in understanding the impact of social determinants of health on care transitions.

7. Teaching Mental Health Social Work: What Are We Preparing Students
for?
Whitaker, Louise; Smith, Fiona; Petrakis, Melissa; Brophy, Lisa Australian Social Work, Oct2023; 76(4): 428-440. (13p) (Journal Article - review) ISSN: 0312-407X AN: 172311217
Abstract: The Australian social work course accreditation standards aim to ensure graduates have an understanding of the social, cultural, and political structures that influence psychosocial wellbeing. Unlike the previous standards, the current standards do not require the curricula to address specific knowledge and skills for working with people who live with severe mental distress or mental health conditions that might result in diagnoses such as schizophrenia, personality disorders, and bipolar disorder.
Anticipating the revision of curricula resulting from these recent changes to the accreditation standards, four social work academics from across three Australian universities engaged in a peer review of mental health social work curricula. By exploring the purpose, emphasis, and challenges in curriculum design, this stage of the review aimed to identify the positioning of future curricula to prepare graduates who embrace the complex array of opportunities and demands of social work practice in this field. Our investigations confirmed diversity in mental health social work practice, revealing mental health social work curricula must meet multiple and evolving agendas.
IMPLICATIONS International calls for transformative approaches to mental health present opportunities for enhanced recognition of the social justice orientation of social work. The absence of an accreditation requirement to address social work practice with people who live with severe mental distress or low prevalence mental health conditions might prove a regrettable gap in Australian Social Work Education Accreditation Standards 2021. Further collegial discussion and debate about the beneficial outcomes of mental health social work curricula are desirable.

9. An exploration of factors impacting implementation of a multisystem
hospital‐based violence intervention program.
By: Mueller, Kristen L.; Moran, Vicki; Anwuri, Victoria; Foraker, Randi E.; Mancini, Michael A.
Health & Social Care in the Community. Nov2022, Vol. 30 Issue 6,
pe6577-e6585. 9p. Abstract: Community violence, particularly gun
violence, is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in young people
in the United States. Because persons experiencing violence‐related
injuries are likely to receive medical care through emergency
departments, hospitals are increasingly seen as primary locations for
violence intervention services. Currently, there is little research on
how best to implement hospital‐based violence intervention programs
(HVIPs) across large hospital systems. This study explored the factors
influencing the implementation of a multi‐site HVIP using qualitative
interviews with a purposive sample of 20 multidisciplinary
stakeholders. Thematic analysis was used to generate several themes
that included: (1) reframing gun violence as a public health issue; (2)
developing networks of community–hospital–university partners; (3)
demonstrating effectiveness and community benefit; and (4) establishing
patient engagement pathways. Effective implementation and sustainment
of HVIPs requires robust and sustained multidisciplinary partnerships
within and across hospital systems and the establishment of HVIPs as a
standard of care. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] DOI: 10.1111/hsc.14107. (AN:

10. Interprofessional collaboration between social workers and community
health workers to address health and mental health in the United
States: A systematised review.
By: Noel, Lailea; Chen, Qi; Petruzzi, Liana J.; Phillips, Farya; Garay, Ricardo; Valdez, Carmen; Aranda,
María P.; Jones, Barbara. Health & Social Care in the Community.
Nov2022, Vol. 30 Issue 6, pe6240-e6254. 15p. Abstract: Collaboration
between social workers (SW) and community health workers (CHW) plays an
essential role in addressing health inequities in the United States
(US). However, little is known about the current state of CHW/SW
collaboration. The objectives of this review were to identify (a) the
nature, goals and setting of CHWs and SW collaboration; (b) the patient
outcomes utilised to measure intervention efficacy. The literature
search was conducted in December 2020 using six databases. The
inclusion criteria were (1) interventions that included CHWs and SWs;
(2) US‐based; (3) published between 2000–2020; (4) peer‐reviewed
journal articles; (5) examining health or mental health outcomes.
Search results identified 281 articles, and 15 were included in the
final analysis. Settings that utilised SW/CHW collaboration included
outpatient clinics (n = 10); community organisations (n = 4) or
hospital (n = 1). CHW and SW interventions focused on disease
prevention (n = 8), chronic care (n = 4) and mental health (n = 3).
Health outcomes were the most evaluated (n = 13), and significant
improvement of at least one health outcome was reported in those
studies. Mental health outcomes (n = 3) were also significantly
improved, while social determinants of health (n = 2) were least common
and descriptive only. This is the first review of SW and CHW
collaboration. Clarity regarding SW and CHW roles and scopes of
practice are needed to understand better SW/CHW collaboration and its
impacts on community health outcomes and improve the process of
collaboration. SW and CHW collaboration may increase clients' access to
preventive care, mental health and address health inequities. [ABSTRACT
