Course Description:
Due to the stigma associated with substance use disorder (SUD), individuals are often reluctant to participate in treatment. If not addressed, SUD can increase the risk of developing other health conditions. This course will be beneficial for anyone working with a patient or loved one struggling with addiction. This presentation will describe key factors of reducing barriers to disengagement from treatment and discuss strategies for caring for a patient or loved one with a substance use disorder. Additionally, key concepts of working with psychiatric and co-occurring SUD populations will also be identified.
