Alcohol swaps, cotton balls, tourniquets, sterile water ampoules or saline.
PPE (gloves, masks, hand sanitizer), biohazard disposal bags
Allows service for tablet/iPad use for data collection. SMP currently uses Athena to collect patient information. The use of
service would allow us to move from paper notes to on-the-spot direct collection. The Community Engagement and
Outreach team already has access to tablets and iPad; thus, the purchase of these equipment is not necessary.
Costs associated with the dissemination of findings on two academic/scholarly journals ($2,500 each). It is important for us to
share SMP practices and results of the SMP program with ADHS collaboration and support so other researchers, public health
professionals, or community members can have public access to these findings.
Travel costs of two team members to present at two conferences. The dissemination of findings is important for our team.
We want to share SMP practices and results of the SMP program, as well as the impact of ADHS collaboration and support so
other researchers, public health professionals, or community members can have public access to our results.
