Session originally hosted September 2022
Despite its safety and effectiveness, medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) remains underutilized and difficult to access. Interprofessional collaboration among care teams is often insufficient. Inadequate access, stigma, and a lack of awareness contribute to significant, persisting health disparities. Patients with other substance use disorders are rarely provided access to or education around MOUD.
In this training, we will discuss how MOUD access is a health equity issue and how some populations remain underserved, including Black, pregnant, incarcerated, adolescent, and rural individuals. We will provide strategies for outreach and raising awareness among patients, and we will explain how to best engage and utilize the entire care team, especially nursing. In addition, we will review how MOUD may be utilized by emergency medicine providers to assist patients with substance use disorders beyond opioid use disorder.
At the conclusion of this training, learners should be able to:
✓ Summarize interventions that can be used in the ED for other substance use disorders
