Process Mapping to Optimize Child Psychosocial Screenings in Primary Care, and Increase Family Service Linkages

Many families screened in primary care for social challenges to identify psychosocial needs of caregivers and children do not receive the follow-up support they need. This study will test a new clinic-based approach, CARELOOP, designed to improve how families are referred to and connected with services. Using community input and a method called Process Service Mapping, the project will tailor clinic workflows and evaluate the approach's impact through a randomized trial. The goal is to improve care coordination and reduce health disparities.
