Healio (3/3, Gramigna) reports, “A telephonic work-focused counseling program added to integrated care improved veterans’ psychiatric and occupational outcomes, which reduced obstacles in civilian life,” researchers concluded after testing “whether integrated telephonic work-focused counseling, known as Be Well at Work…combined with the VHA integrated care program is superior to integrated care alone for improving depression and occupational functioning.” Included in the randomized study were 253 veterans. The findings were published online Feb. 28 in JAMA Network Open.
