Implementing a Population-Based Social Determinants of Health Intervention: Early Lessons Learned from Collaboration
Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to understand the barriers and facilitators among diverse health care and community organization stakeholders implementing a populationbased social determinants of health (SDOH) intervention. The SDOH intervention included three core programs: SDOH screening, a community health worker program, and a digital referral platform. After one year of implementation, we conducted semi-structured qualitative interviews with clinical and community-based organization stakeholders about (1) the three SDOH programs, (2) organizational implementation strategies, (3) interactions with partner organizations, and (4) perceived target population needs. Findings from the first year of implementation highlighted several factors to consider when designing and implementing SDOH programming, including (1) the successful features of the three SDOH programs, (2) the local implementation strategies and challenges across organizations, (3) the impact of broader community needs and resource availability on implementation, and (4) the importance of intentionally fostering relationships and collaboration among partner organizations.
