RoS: Opioid Use Disorder Care in Primary Care
Description
Welcome to Recovery Month! In celebration of primary care’s role in addiction care, we are featuring a show about caring for patients with addiction.
Our guests this week are Adele Ojeda, the office based opioid treatment (or OBOT) nurse for Barre Family Health Center and Dr. Stephen Martin. Dr. Martin is Associate Professor of Family Medicine and Community Health at University of MA Medical School and a faculty physician at Berry Family Health Center, and affiliate faculty for the HMS Center for Primary Care.
They share their experiences caring for patients with OUD in the primary care setting, and we also discuss an article Dr. Martin published with several colleagues in Annals of Internal Medicine in November 2018 entitled The Next Stage of Buprenorphine Care for Opioid Use Disorder that focuses on a number of widely accepted, yet not evidence-based, and potentially harmful practices in buprenorphine care.
If you enjoy the show, please rate, review & subscribe to us wherever you listen, it helps others find the show, and share us on social media and with our friends and colleagues.
