27 Results: Summary of HL Evaluation The majority of callers found the HL services to be highly satisfactory. Barriers to access and utilization for treatment and self-help were minimal in the sample. Perceived barriers, and individual s stage of change or readiness, seem to play a larger role in utilizing services and recidivism. There seem to be differences between gamblers and SOs in service utilization, that have implications for programming and coordinating the spectrum of services.
28 Results: Summary of HL Evaluation SOs of gamblers in the sample reported lower rates of utilizing treatment and self-help/ support services than did gamblers, and SOs reported higher rates than gamblers of using other forms of treatment. Gamblers in the sample reported higher degrees of amelioration of the problem than SOs at time of eval. Disparities highlight the importance of services for families/ SOs as well as those for problem gamblers.
29 Limitations & Considerations Sample size Data collection & methodology Self-reporting bias Recall bias Time Extrapolation
30 Recommendations & Conclusions Data: -Collection tool should stand by itself in the information it provides -Establish indicators across all service areas Evaluation: -Build into the program planning stage if possible -Review tools, methodology prior to implementation -Report results and examine indicators and trends -Use as a continuous feedback mechanism -Further HL evaluations should be conducted
31 Recommendations & Conclusions HL Evaluation offers valuable information for: Re-establishing or creating new linkages to the appropriate services Staff training/ development Programming areas Prevention, outreach, support, treatment & advocacy For problem gamblers and families/ SOs (as systems vs. individuals) Addressing the needs of problem gamblers and their families/ SOs where they are at
32 Recommendations & Conclusions HL Evaluation offers valuable information for: Collaboration- along the continuum of services for PGs and their families/ SOs (prevention, treatment, self-help/ support groups and recovery) Sharing information (re: services, client needs, data) Towards a seamless coordination of a variety of needed services Reducing or eliminating barriers at various levels of services Collaborative Studies (I.e., 2004 CCPG/ DMHAS service delivery study)
