Target Audience: physicians and advanced-practice providers in psychiatry, emergency medicine, family medicine, internal medicine, and obstetrics and gynecology

Information:

The opioid use epidemic has been at the forefront of societal concerns in the United States. The DEA-MATE act requires all providers to adeptly prescribe and manage Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) and related issues. Treating teams face multiple challenges, including treating chronic pain, preventing over-prescription of opioids, and addressing illicit use. This conference will provide education on evidence-based treatment techniques, including pharmacologic and psychotherapeutic approaches, to manage OUD. Attendees will learn to recognize barriers to accessing medication, apply person-first language, and identify signs and symptoms of opioid use disorder and withdrawal. Additionally, attendees will gain knowledge on how to refer patients to appropriate resources for outpatient care, ultimately empowering them to initiate and/or maintain effective treatments for OUD with confidence.

TARGET AUDIENCE

This activity is for physicians and advanced-practice providers in psychiatry, emergency medicine, family medicine, internal medicine, and obstetrics and gynecology and the community.
