Mental Health and OUD: Working with LGBTQ+ Individuals
Description
Substance use disorders and opioid use disorders are more common in LGBTQ individuals with comorbid mental illness. In addition, many treatment programs do not have the culturally sensitive resources to adequately treat LGBTQ patients and are not aware of resources available for those who may have other underlying conditions or adverse histories. Micro-aggressions and discrimination in MAT practice can negatively impact treatment and recovery from substance use disorders, therefore it is essential for practitioners to have a greater understanding of this minority population.
Target Audience
Physicians, nurse practitioners or other advanced practice nurses, PAs, psychologists, pharmacists, and healthcare teams.
