This is especially true in the addiction field, but there is little cited evidence for optimal methods to improve EBP in inpatient addiction facilities with minimal resources.Objective: The current paper focuses on evaluating the state of our facility’s group CBT manual and clinical training on the manual in a “realistic” (ie, non-RCT, non-grant-funded) inpatient addiction treatment setting.Methods: Five full-time clinicians volunteered to take part in the study (woman = 60%; Mage = 36.20 years). The study involved a mix of semi-structured interviews and surveys designed to measure seven outcomes (barriers, feasibility, useability, appropriateness, acceptability, burden, trialability).Results: Three themes emerged from the data that impacted the group CBT manual: training, timing, and functionality. Addressing these themes allowed for a new, optimal manual and training procedure to be put into place.Conclusion: The current study highlights that under-resourced inpatient addiction facilities can still methodically utilize implementation approaches to study their EBP, namely CBT. Such an approach will ensure that the highest quality care is being delivered to patients and actively addresses known training barriers that prevent proper EBP delivery.Plain Language Summary: Quality training is a barrier when implementing evidenced-based practice to treat substance use disorders.CBT is a manualized evidence-based practice that is performed at inpatient addiction facilities.An evaluation of the CBT manual was made by an inpatient addiction facility to identify barriers of implementation of EBPs.Identified barriers included training, timing, and functionality.Keywords: cognitive behavioral therapy, addiction, evidence-based practice, inpatient, substance use disorders
