Reducing Methamphetamine Use in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Communities With the “We Can Do This” Web App: Qualitative Evaluation of Acceptability and #feasibility Background: Preventing and treating methamphetamine-related harm in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander populations is a significant challenge for health care services. Digital health care may offer opportunities to support individuals and families in ways that complement existing methamphetamine treatment options. This study responds to a community-identified priority as Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Services (ACCHSs) identified methamphetamine use as a key concern and sought support to respond to the needs of people who use methamphetamine and their families. Objective: This study is part of a larger project entitled ‘Novel Interventions to address Methamphetamine use in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Communities’ (NIMAC), which seeks to develop culturally appropriate and strengths-based prevention and treatment interventions to reduce methamphetamine related harm. We Can Do This was a web-based application (web-app) developed for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who are seeking to reduce or stop methamphetamine use. This paper reports on a process evaluation of the web-app’s acceptability and #feasibility when used by clients and clinicians in residential rehabilitation services and primary care. Methods: Clinicians and clients who had used the web-app were recruited via Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Services and Aboriginal residential rehabilitation services in urban and regional Victoria and South Australia. Non-identified usage data was collected from all participants. After using the web-app, those who indicated a willingness to be interviewed were contacted and interviewed by phone or in person and asked about the #feasibility and acceptability of the web-app. The framework method of analysis was used to structure and summarise the resulting qualitative data. Results: Interviews with 24 clients and 11 clinicians explored the acceptability and #feasibility of the web-app. Acceptability incorporated the following domains: affective attitude, burden, ethicality, cultural appropriateness, coherence, opportunity cost, perceived effectiveness, and self-efficacy. The evaluation of #feasibility assessed barriers and facilitators to the implementation of the program, with a focus on: demand, practicality, fidelity, and integration. Results indicated that both clients and clinicians found the web-app content coherent, relatable, empowering and culturally safe. Barriers to using the web-app for clients included a lack of internet connectivity and personal issues such as scheduling. Conclusions: Process evaluation is often under-valued. However, as We Can Do This was new, innovative and targeted a hard-to-reach population, understanding its #feasibility and acceptability as a clinical tool was essential to understanding its potential. We Can Do This is unique as the only evidence-based, culturally appropriate online therapeutic program specifically designed for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who use methamphetamine. Findings suggest it was both acceptable and feasible as a low-cost adjunct to usual care in residential rehabilitation and primary care settings.
