Intended Outcome. The overall intended outcome of this Framework is to reduce the number of Canadians in housing need by improving access to affordable housing that is sound, suitable and sustainable for Canadians in need.
Intended Outcome a. Engage Spoke physicians and clinical staff in learning collaborative process including common QI data collection and reporting, PDSA activities, provide CME information about evidence-based and expert-consensus practices, disseminate practice materials and resources, and utilize multiple communication formats for case consultation and resource sharing (e.g. Basecamp, email).
b. Reduce practice variation and establish guidelines and standardized protocols for: 1) Program admission and medication options; 2) Treatment decision-making for integrated, coordinated or referred care models; 3) Approaches to patient response to treatment, including use of other substances, diversion and non-compliance; and 4) Mechanisms of care coordination with Spoke and OBOT practices.
c. Improved patient access to services and transitions across services, and common treatment process and outcomes measurement.
Intended Outcome a. Introduce national expert and evidence-based guidelines for Spoke services including buprenorphine medication options within single site clinics. With VT scientific and clinical experts operationalize and document standardized practices and protocols for dissemination across Spoke programs.
b. Develop user-friendly materials (forms, instruments, electronic health record templates, manuals) for protocol implementation.
c. Provide DVHA and the Blueprint with formats to institute sustainable quality monitoring tools and capabilities. The following staffing plan details the Contractor’s Key Project Personnel who will be assigned to this scope. The Contractor shall provide a staffing model that meets the following criteria: • Physicians’ board certified in addictions medicine; • Forensic expertise for patients with legal system involvement; • Clinicians with specialized knowledge in provision of integrated addictions and mental health treatment; • Expertise in implementation science and using research based strategies for the implementation and sustainment of guidelines and/or evidence-based practices in routine care situations; • Expertise and familiarity with the current evidence and late-breaking research on treatment of opioid use disorders; and, • Experience in the direct provision of health services targeted to people with substance use and co-occurring psychiatric and medical disorders. The Contractor’s Key Personnel will be made up of an expert team of health professionals with subject matter expertise and shall demonstrate skills in supporting professional field-based learning. A track record of successful engagement of practices and agencies in Vermont and of collaboration with the State of Vermont is essential. As such, the Contractor shall provide the following individuals to perform the scope of this contract: Xxxx XxXxxxxx, PhD Professor of Psychiatry and of Community and Family Medicine Xxxxxx School of Medicine at Dartmouth NIDA-funded effectiveness and implementation research on addiction Editor-In-Chief, Journal of Substance Abuse Treatment Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, MD, PhD Assistant Professor of Psychiatry, Xxxxxx School of Medicine Director, Dartmouth Addiction Treatment Program, DHMC Director, Addiction Psychiatry Fellowship, Xxxxxx School of Medicine Doctorate in Criminology Xxxxxx Xxxxx, MS Research Associate, Department of Psychiatry Xxxxxx School of Medicine at Dartmouth Clinical Supervisor, NIDA-funded research on behavioral therapies VT ...
Intended Outcome. This BP ensures the standardization of the software stack used to execute the different steps of a pipeline, avoiding the errors related to the usage of different software and library versions.
Intended Outcome. We expect the decision module to be able to identify the optimal cluster on which to run the jobs based on cost, runtime and energy consumption predictions. It will choose among all available clusters, the three best clusters (based on the objective to optimize, i.e. energy, time, cost or the three together/performance) and rank them. The identified clusters will be returned to the user along with runtime, cost and energy consumption associated to each one of them.
Intended Outcome. Following this BP the HEROES decision module has been built using private or public historical workload archives (such as the Parallel Workload Archive - xxxxx://xxx.xx.xxxx.xx.xx/labs/parallel/workload/). We expect the process and algorithms used in the decision module to be as robust and accurate as possible.
Intended Outcome. This BP ensures that the user will use only the resources which they have access to.
Intended Outcome. This BP enables the “infrastructure as code” approach for HEROES infrastructure endpoints. This approach has numerous advantages such as decreased risks, increased stability and consistency, faster iteration, cost optimization and self-documentation.
Intended Outcome. The purpose of the Agreement and this CA is to increase the distribution and resiliency of the Oregon chub within its historic range by creating refugia populations, by improving the quantity and quality of habitat for existing natural populations, or by promoting natural movement and gene transfer among existing natural populations through the re-establishment of floodplain connectivity. This strategy decreases the risk of local extinction of Oregon chub through population dispersal and thus minimizes the probability that a single catastrophic event will simultaneously affect all populations. This strategy also recognizes the importance of habitat connectivity, which enables otherwise isolated populations to interbreed and increase their genetic variability and potential to evolve as environmental conditions dictate. The biological goal of this Agreement is to aid in Oregon chub recovery by establishing new populations and genetic reserves at refugia sites and by improving the connectivity. Together, these activities should increase the distribution, number and natural movement of populations, and achieve recovered status. To accomplish this goal, it is essential that the Cooperator, the Service, and the ODFW work together to provide suitable habitat for Oregon chub. Management activities undertaken pursuant to this CA are intended to result in additional refugia sites for new populations or improved habitat for Oregon chub. The ODFW will prepare Cooperative Agreements and provide the following information: The [Name of Cooperator] property is a [# of acre(s)] parcel ... [describe the property and management activities.]
Intended Outcome. This BP enables standardization and automation of all the procedures required for the installation of HEROES components. By simplifying the procedure of installation, many man- made errors can be prevented, smoothing out the deployment of HEROES.
