DCoE Webinar: Evidence Base for Using Technology Solutions in Behavioral Health Care (December 17)

Evidence Base for Using Technology Solutions in Behavioral Health Care

Dec. 17, 2014; 1-2:30 p.m. (EST)

Recent advances in the evidence base for technology-based behavioral health applications have provided clinicians a better understanding and guidance on the integration of these tools into clinical care. Participants will learn about research findings on current technologies in use in clinical practice, such as audio conferencing, video conferencing, and virtual reality, in addition to tools available for use between patients, such as the use of websites and mobile applications and wearable sensors. Clinicians will leave this training with a review of the evidence base for using technology solutions in behavioral health care that will inform their clinical practice.

Webinar participants will learn to:

• Describe a theoretical perspective useful in the conceptualization and application of technology-based interventions for clinical practice
• Differentiate between the concepts of synchronous and asynchronous technologies with respect to behavioral health interventions
• Examine the current status of literature on technologically-supported behavioral health interventions
• Assess potential gaps and recognize future trends in behavioral health technology tools into clinical care
