This study is evaluating a program designed to support adults recovering from a traumatic injury, such as a motor vehicle crash, fall, or other serious injury. Recovery after an injury can be challenging, particularly for people who are experiencing emotional distress as well as difficulties with needs such as housing, food, transportation, or finances. The program, called TRRP+, combines mental health support with assistance from a Community Health Worker who can help participants identify needs, connect with available resources, and navigate services during their recovery. The study will include approximately 100 adults who have experienced a traumatic injury and report emotional distress and at least one unmet social need.
Researchers will examine whether TRRP+ is practical and helpful for patients and will gather feedback from participants, Community Health Workers, and trauma center staff about their experiences with the program. The information learned from this study will help researchers understand how programs like TRRP+ can better support patients' emotional, social, and practical needs as they recover from a traumatic injury.
