Trainings in Alaska Result in Positive Impact in Treating OUD
Last year, PCSS Clinical Expert Melissa Weimer, DO, MCR, traveled to a rural Alaska community to give a small group of clinicians specialized training in treating opioid use disorders (OUD), and the impact of that visit on this rural community has been far reaching.
Several communities across the country are utilizing the trainings created by the PCSS grant, funded by SAMHSA, and seeing an increase in evidence-based treatment of OUD, increased screening, and increased understanding of the effectiveness of the use of medications for the treatment of substance use disorders. Over the next few weeks, PCSS plans to profile several communities and highlight how PCSS has contributed to positive outcomes at the local level.
