PEARLS Study Goals

individuals with or at high risk for depression

participants comparing the treatment program with
usual care
Depression Care Management

antidepressant medication during the study period vs. 4
(6.1%) participants in the usual care group.
• 5 (6.7%) participants in each group stopped using an
antidepressant during study.

Learning Objectives
• The elements of the PEARLS intervention
in a community setting
• Understand the steps required to bring this
new program from research to practice
• Identify and explore opportunities to attract
funding from new partners
Moving From Research to
Practice
• Find funding to implement PEARLS
• AAA Advisory Council
– .5 FTE discretionary funding 2004, now 1.0 (Older
Americans Act)
• Adjust present psychiatrist role to provide
PEARLS consultation
• Advocate for State resources: new AAA pilot,
Spokane WA
Research to Practice,
Adaptations

•
•
•
Now serving age 50+ with new funding
Phone follow up calls completed in 3 months
Initiated food voucher/food card
Sessions may run from 4 – 6 in number
Initiated 30 day in-home visits when team
Supervisor determines client meets PEARLS
criteria
• Multiple referral sources instead of a primary
screener.
Educating Policymakers
• JAMA article, April 2004
• ADSA funded “PEARLS Toolkit” now
downloadable from UW web site
• Bring information, results to ADS Advisory
Council and Sponsors, Seattle, United Way
and King County
• Education of local funder: King County
Veterans and Human Services Levy
PEARLS Expansion
• CDC new research study with University of
Washington brings .5 FTE Implementation
Manager to study best referral flow
• King County Veterans and Human Services Levy
brings $220,000 in 2008, renewable six years.
Two new subcontractors:
– African American Elders Project
– IDIC Filipino elders “drop-in” center
• New ADS internal pilot: Chinese elders
– Three clients currently enrolled. Learning pros/cons of
using this approach work for this community
Challenges and
Opportunities
• Training now through new UW center: CHAMMP
– Recently offered: September 24-26 2008, Seattle
• Consider adding new mental health provider for
PEARLS through Medicaid funding
• Document results from expansion projects, seek to
extend funding statewide
• Link to overall health promotion work in the
community
Challenges and
Opportunities
• Identifying appropriate clients, and flow
• Referral process
• Encouraging Medicaid LTC clients with wellness
focus
• Use of incentives
• New easy-to-use data system needed, show
outcomes, fidelity to original
• PEARLS counselors have many expectations in
addition to client services: training, education,
“championing”, handling inquiries, etc
“Prior to participating in the PEARLS
program I lacked motivation, was severely
depressed, and suffering from chronic pain.
Having completed the program, I am happy
to say that I have successfully overcome
these difficulties, thanks to my counselor
and the tools and exercises he presented.”
