Parent and Child Health: Substance Use Awareness Virtual Conference - Supporting Patients with OUD in Acute Care and Maternal Health
Substance use is a public health concern that is often stigmatized and requires targeted interventions to mitigate disparities around access to substance use services. There is a need for social change so people who use substances can more easily access treatment, harm reduction resources and recovery supports.
Learning Objectives
- Discuss the public health perspectives on harm reduction
- Recognize the need for social change to decrease stigma
- Describe perinatal care for pregnant and post-partum moms with OUD
