Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) in Pregnancy: Readiness, Recognition & Prevention
Pregnancy provides an important opportunity to identify and treat women with OUD. Early universal screening, brief intervention, and referral for treatment of pregnant women with OUD improves maternal and infant outcomes. This recorded webinar provides multi-faceted education and implementation tools to better assist health care providers who care for pregnant women with OUD, encourages better communication and engagement among providers across all services within the continuum of care, and enhances patient and family engagement through education and common language.
