Interventions

  • Turning the Tide Violence Intervention Program (hospital violence intervention program) — BEHAVIORAL
    TTVIP is already integrated into the regular care of patients who are violently injured and treated at MUSC Charleston. Client advocates provide immediate support, help with communication and provide anti-retaliation messaging to victims of violence and their families, in addition to helping support their healthcare. Patients that opt to be followed for long-term wrap-around services and live in the surrounding 3-county area are supported for months (up to 1 year) after injury and provided mentorship, service referrals (i.e. education, employment, substance abuse, injury recovery, pro-social activities, housing) and mental health services.

Study Details

The study's goal is to perform an evaluation of a Southeastern hospital violence intervention program (HVIP) that includes comprehensive patient outcomes, perceived benefits and opportunities for improvement of an HVIP from the perspectives of multiple stakeholders including patients, family members and healthcare providers.

Arms

  • Other: Patients, family members and healthcare providers
    Patients that experience violent injuries or are high risk of violence between ages of 15-35 and treated at MUSC Charleston will be enrolled. The hospital violence intervention program is incorporated into regular care of patients, and they may opt to receive services from the program (TTVIP) if they qualify and opt to participate. There is no randomization or assignment. Investigators will assess outcomes of these patients and outcomes will be assessed for between group differences between those that receive services from the program and those that do not. Patient family members and healthcare providers that care for patients will be included and are exposed to the regular healthcare and services provided to patients.

Primary Outcome Measure

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder [ Time Frame: Victims of violence will be screened at baseline enrollment, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after enrollment ]
