Patient screening for integrated behavioral health in adult primary care: A rapid review of effective procedures.
Conclusions: There is an absence of robust, well-structured evidence supporting many of the BH screening strategies advocated for in primary care. Stakeholders may wish to understand how to ensure value when developing a robust screening program that will improve patient health outcomes. Future research should advance the science of BH screen selection, timing, and implementation by answering new questions about screening strategies.

Mental health screening of patients with cystic fibrosis through telehealth during COVID-19: Evaluation of feasibility and process adoption.
Discussion: Implementation of mental health screening during a multidisciplinary telehealth clinic is feasible and can be adopted by providers and patients, even when health systems operations are impacted by COVID-19. It allows CF centers to maintain adherence to mental health screening and treatment guidelines. This method of screening can be applied to other patient populations and systems of care to expand access to mental health services during COVID-19 and beyond.

COVID-19 and crisis communication among African American households.
Families, Systems, & Health, Vol 40(3), Sep 2022, 408-412; doi:10.1037/fsh0000705Background: African American (AA) families are disproportionately burdened by COVID-19 resulting in morbidity and death. How pandemic risks and impacts are communicated to parents and in turn translated to children can have implications for familial mental wellbeing. Because culture shapes how information is received, processed, and utilized, there is need to understand how AA parents’ experiences of COVID-19 information sharing and perceived vulnerabilities influenced communication with their children.
