Name
The I-SHLAFF Intake Framework: A Brief Initial Interview for Integrated Care Settings
Description

This presentation will describe a framework to orient behavioral health in primary care settings. The I-SHLAFF model guides behavioral health clinicians through an initial assessment devoted to psychosocial factors implicit in health functioning. Specifically, the framework uses the I-SHLAFF acronym to remind clinicians to address Identity, Safety, Home Environment, Lifestyle Behaviors, Adherence to Treatment, Family Relationships, and Feelings in early assessment to assist with treatment planning and interprofessional care.
