Stepped Care Management
Case management, information technology/mHealth innovations, psychotherapy, and psychopharmacology.: All patients randomized to receive the stepped care management procedures will meet with the trauma support specialist (TSS) prior to discharge from the hospital, who will provide coaching on use of mobile technology for mental health concerns. The TSS will complete follow-up correspondence across the three month time period to assess mental health functioning and use of information technology that addresses medical concerns. Patients who report barriers to mHealth technologies and request additional therapeutic services for mental health concerns assistance will receive evidence-based motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioral intervention procedures that can span up to 3-months.
Usual Care
Usual care control patients will be given a list of available community resources and encouraged to proceed using all resources available to them.
