Providing Comprehensive Care in Opioid Treatment Program: A Policy and Provider Perspective (on-demand)
Overview



Target Audience: This activity is designed for interprofessional teams, patients, educators, nurses, physicians, psychiatrists, psychologists, executives, clinical staff, administrators and social workers.

Webinar Description: The current opioid and drug overdose crisis continues to have a devastating impact on morbidity and mortality in the United States. With the rise in use of potent synthetic opioids like fentanyl in the drug supply, creating linkages to comprehensive substance use related services is critical. Opioid Treatment Programs (OTP) and the comprehensive care and services they provide play a vital role in addressing this need, yet challenges remain.  Despite clear evidence of the benefits of OTP’s, access to OTPs in some parts of the country is limited; stigma related to the use of methadone remains a challenge. Yet in the face of these headwinds, many OTPs are providing comprehensive leading-edge services to address the opioid and drug overdose crisis.

Educational Objectives:

  • Examine current policy landscape for OTP’s.
  • Discuss the value proposition of becoming and OTP.
  • Identify strategies to provide comprehensive services in an OTP.
  • Describe what services can be offered at an OTP.
