Kentucky Communities and Researchers Engaging to Halt the Opioid Epidemic (CARE2HOPE) - UH3 PHASE

April M Young·interventional·Posted Oct 22, 2019·Updated Dec 21, 2023

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Health Linkage and Overdose Education for Substance Use and 5 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 234 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

This study will test the effects of an intervention to reduce substance use and related harms among people leaving rural jails or otherwise involved in the criminal justice system. This study will compare people in a health linkage intervention with people who will get overdose (OD) education. Everyone will take part in the baseline and follow-up surveys and receive OD education. Participants will be assigned to one of the two groups by chance based on when they are enrolled to the study and if their county is randomly assigned to an intervention or a comparison condition. By doing this study, the investigators hope to learn if providing linkage to health services along with HIV, hepatitis C virus (HCV), and overdose education to people leaving rural jails or otherwise involved in the criminal justice system will reduce substance use and related harms.

Interventions

Health Linkagebehavioral

Research staff will: 1) help participants set goals and reduce their health risks by helping them to reflect on personal drug use, sexual relationships, and their consequences in the context of personal values and goals; 2) help link participants to services that they need and want; 3) offer participants the option of HIV and hepatitis C testing, provide the test result, and provide post-test counseling; and 4) provided participants nasal spray naloxone (Narcan) to carry with them in case they encounter someone who has an opioid overdose or in case they have an opioid overdose and a friend can use the naloxone to respond.

Overdose Educationbehavioral

Participants will complete a 10-minute overdose education training video on preventing, recognizing, and responding effectively to an opioid OD.
