Northeast Node Webinar: Medications for OUD for Youth
December 5 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm EST
In 2021, one in every 100 kids aged 12-17 had an opioid use disorder (OUD). Medication treatment for OUD (MOUD) is effective, but only 3-4% of youth who need it receive treatment. This session will outline features of youth treatment for OUD, evidence for treating youth with medications, youth MOUD uptake and retention, the role of families in care, and opportunities for interdisciplinary care teams in outpatient settings.
In this extended session, Dr. Marc Fishman (Mountain Manor & Johns Hopkins) will also facilitate interactive case reviews with attendees. If you have a case you would like to present, please let Bethany McLeman know: bethany.m.mcleman@dartmouth.edu
