This activity is primarily designed to meet the needs of primary care physicians, specialty care physicians, and allied professional staff.

While use of medications and behavioral therapy are hallmarks of addiction treatment, more services are needed to facilitate lasting recovery. Recovery-oriented systems of care (ROSC) are a shift away from crisis-oriented, deficit-focused, and professionally-directed models of care to a vision of care that is designed in collaboration with people in recovery, emphasizes the hope and reality of long-term recovery, and recognizes the many pathways to healing for people with mental and substance use disorders . This webinar will explore the ROSC model and discuss how prescribers, peers and other allied professionals can work together to implement ROSC models to facilitate long-term recovery and wellness

At the conclusion of this activity, learners should be able to:

• Recognize recovery in the context of health and wellness
• Describe the components of a Recovery Oriented System of Care (ROSC)
• Explore the role of peer support workers in a ROSC model
• Discuss the relationship between providing medications for substance use disorders and recovery support services
• Explore the staffing and services necessary to support a ROSC model
