Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: SBIRT InterventionExperimental Treatment5 Interventions
The interventionist will discuss substance use and misuse, HIV, and the interaction of aging and substance use; will give the patient feedback on their NM-ASSIST score and assess the patient's readiness to change based on Prochaska's stages of change; motivational interviewing techniques to identify the patients' most salient reasons for addressing substance use issues. Identifying and prioritizing need; problem-solving techniques to help patients identify which services may best help them work towards their goals; will use a referral resource guide to provide the contact information of agency representatives and help the patient formulate a plan for follow-up.
Group II: Treatment as UsualActive Control1 Intervention
Participants in the enhanced care treatment as usual group will receive the same illustrated handout depicting their substance use screening score and the same referral resource guide provided to those in the control group. These will be provided with only a quick introduction by the research assistant to minimize intervention elements in the control condition and to resemble the notification and referral strategy that would be standard care.
