Implementing the screening for poverty and related social determinants and intervening to improve knowledge of and links to resources (SPARK) in primary care clinics across Canada

The authors aimed to evaluate the implementation of the SPARK tool for collecting demographic and social needs data in primary care clinics across Canada. Their findings indicate that the SPARK tool was well-accepted and feasible for use, with high satisfaction rates among patients and clinic staff, although some challenges related to resource allocation and integration were noted. The study offers valuable insights for enhancing the sustainability of social needs screening in primary care settings.
