OUD and Stigma: We Can Save Lives
  • S.U.D
$0.00
In this 19 minute presentation, Dr. Gloria Sanchez sheds light on critical and often neglected aspects of opioid use disorder (OUD) stigma encountered by health care professionals and people living with OUD. The medical model of addiction frames addiction as a treatable chronic medical condition rather than a personal failure. While Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) contribute to OUD stigma, we learn what steps providers can take to reduce the negative impacts of stigma and improve OUD care and outcomes.
