Overview
More than 57 million American adults suffer from a diagnosable mental disorder each year, yet 62% go untreated. Primary care providers act as the first point-of-care for nearly half of the U.S. patient population and are uniquely positioned to identify patients with mental health or substance use disorders by integrating behavioral health into routine care.
Adopted by more than 30 organizations, state agencies, and schools of health professions, this research-proven online solution helps improve the capacity of health professionals to address substance use, mental health, and suicidal ideation as part of routine care. In this simulation, users assume the role of a healthcare professional and talk with two virtual patients about their substance use and mental health disorders.
