TI  - Screening and Brief Intervention for Alcohol Misuse in Older Adults: Training 
      Outcomes Among Physicians and Other Healthcare Practitioners in Community-Based 
      Settings.

AB  - Screening and brief intervention (SBI) is increasingly available to older adults 
      who engage in at-risk drinking. This study examined the extent to which SBI 
      training influenced the willingness of healthcare providers in a community-based 
      hospital and other clinical settings to promote the implementation of SBI. 
      Ninety-three healthcare practitioners (primarily physicians, nurses, and social 
      workers) who attended SBI training were asked about their intentions to apply the 
      information in their professional practice, as well as their enthusiasm about 
      recommending the training to others in their profession. Although there were no 
      differences among the professions in terms of commitment to apply the information 
      or level of comfort using the techniques, physicians were less interested in 
      promoting SBI training among their colleagues. Although it may be more difficult 
      to promote SBI in locations that don't primarily provide mental health services, 
      results suggest that primary care settings are precisely where training may be 
      most useful.
