Video Summary
The presentation by Dr. Danielle Jackson, a specialist with the Opioid Response Network, covered essential details about opioid use disorder, stigma surrounding substance use disorders, and the impact of language on addressing these issues. The presentation emphasized the importance of utilizing person-first language to reduce stigma and provided insights into medication options for treating opioid use disorder, including methadone, buprenorphine, and extended-release naltrexone. The session also touched on the prevalence of drug overdose deaths, especially due to synthetic opioids like fentanyl, and highlighted the need for harm reduction strategies like fentanyl testing. The talk underscored the chronic nature of opioid use disorder and the necessity of evidence-based treatments, psychotherapy, and community support in promoting recovery. Lastly, discussions on the impact of dual therapy and the process of claiming continuing education credits were also addressed.
