Nurse-Led PTSD Treatment in Primary Care
This study is testing a new program called NurseNET for people with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) who have also recently experienced a life-threatening heart event. PTSD is a serious condition, and this study aims to see if specially trained nurses can provide effective, short-term treatment directly in primary care clinics. This could make it easier for more people to get the help they need, as there aren't always enough mental health specialists available. The study will compare NurseNET to standard referral for PTSD treatment. Researchers will measure changes in your PTSD symptoms using a questionnaire called the PCL-5 over 12 months to see how well NurseNET works.
