STANDALONE COURSES
Acute Pain Management in Patients with OUD
This Opioid Training Initiative course was developed to prepare healthcare professionals who work to manage pain for patients in the hospital setting with opioid use disorder (OUD). The course supports development of an approach to manage pain with hospitalized individuals with OUD, and compare pain management strategies for individuals with OUD taking buprenorphine, methadone, extended release naltrexone, and non-prescribed opioids. The course also reviews considerations for transition of care and discharge planning.
Launch
Buprenorphine-Naloxone versus Extended-Release Naltrexone: A Comparison of Efficacy and Safety
This Opioid Training Initiative course was developed to prepare healthcare professionals who work with clients with opioid use disorder. Through the course, participants will be able to describe the neurobiological processes involved in OUD, evaluate the efficacy and safety of two medications for OUD (MOUD) and analyze existing evidence for optimal MOUD selection.
Launch
Effective Communication Strategies with Patients in the Hospital Setting with Opioid Use Disorder
This Opioid Training Initiative course was developed to prepare healthcare professionals who work with opioid use disorder (OUD) patients. Through this course, Dr. Berg discusses common engagement challenges with patients in the hospital setting with OUD and discusses use of the Prescription Monitoring Program (PMP) to facilitate constructive harm reduction conversations. He also identifies evidence-based communication strategies to enhance engagement and decrease discord in addressing opiate misuse. The focus of this program is on patient communication where evidence has shown to be one of the major factors in success in recovery.
Launch
Overview of B Team, Implementation Barriers, and Grow Strategies
