Training, Dissemination & Evaluation of a Depression Self-care Tool Delivered to Injured Employees
Depression is commonly associated with workplace-related physical injuries and can also have negative effects on recovery, rehabilitation and the return-to-work process. This research attempts to address this issue by developing an implementation strategy for the dissemination and integration of a low-cost, evidence-based self-care guide for depression within an existing Prevention & Early Active Return-to-Work (PEARS) program for injured workers with a primary diagnosis of musculoskeletal injury. It is anticipated that this project will enhance the success of early intervention for workers who have a primary physical health injury.
