Description
Measurement-based care (MBC) integrates validated clinical tools into psychiatric treatment to improve decision-making and patient outcomes. Although MBC is associated with superior treatment efficacy in depression and other mental health disorders, its widespread adoption remains limited due to multilevel implementation barriers. This session examines the structural, organizational, and individual-level challenges faced when deploying MBC across diverse mental health systems. Through real-world rollout examples, participants will explore common pitfalls and successful strategies from clinical settings that implemented MBC across psychotherapy, pharmacotherapy, and neurostimulation. Group discussions will allow attendees to reflect on their own settings and design practical steps for initiating or enhancing MBC.Add from tracking sheet / application
