Karina K. Uldall, M.D., Shelly Tonge, Jim Berghuis, Ph.D., Bernadette
Lalonde, Ph.D., Billie Hatchell. The University of Washington Department of Psychiatry and
NW Education and Training Center has developed a project to enhance the delivery of
psychiatric services to HIV infected clients and to increase the knowledge and perceived
ability of providers and families to identify and access care for HIV/AIDS associated
delirium and other neuropsychiatric illnesses. The project has incorporated various
training methods, including didactic presentations, case consultations, and patient
evaluations. This project is a cooperative agreement funded by the Health Resources and
Services Administration, Special Projects of National Significance HIV Service Delivery
Models Initiative. Requirements of the cooperative agreement include a rigorous local and
participation in a multi-site evaluation. The presentation will address the development of
the project, training methods and approaches to incorporating national multi-site
evaluation components into a local project. Barriers to project implementation and their
negotiation will be discussed.
