The California adverse childhood experiences screening roll-out: a survey study of ACEs screening implementation in primary care

This study provided a first look at provider perspectives on ACEs screening and treatment in a sample of California providers. Most responding providers report currently screening for ACEs and using PEARLS. Perceptions of feasibility were slightly higher than for acceptability. Facilitators were largely top-down and organizational in nature, such as financial incentives and leadership support. Future directions could include an exploration into why some providers may find ACEs unappealing and research to identify effective and accessible treatment approaches for ACEs.

Abstract

This study provided a first look at provider perspectives on ACEs screening and treatment in a sample of California providers. Most responding providers report currently screening for ACEs and using PEARLS. Perceptions of feasibility were slightly higher than for acceptability. Facilitators were largely top-down and organizational in nature, such as financial incentives and leadership support. Future directions could include an exploration into why some providers may find ACEs unappealing and research to identify effective and accessible treatment approaches for ACEs.
