The basic implementation package will involve identifying an internal coordinator who is one of the full-time on-site providers at the clinic. The internal coordinator provides mentoring to peers and support to leadership in implementing the treatment program and aligning it with clinic priorities.

The enhanced implementation package will combine the internal coordinator with an external quality assurance committee. This committee will complete quarterly audits at the facility to evaluate compliance with the depression treatment protocol as well as providing high-level support in implementing the treatment program through clinical expertise and limited on-site presence.
