About this episode
For people struggling with opioid dependency, the healthcare system can often be overwhelming and difficult to access, but it doesn’t have to be this way. When first responders, medical practitioners, mental health professionals, and public health experts come together, the healthcare systems can be an avenue for compassionate, evidence-based support.
In this episode of Countermeasures, we explore science-backed innovations that help lower barriers to accessing care, rebuild trust, and improve outcomes.
Guests:
Jessica Hulsey, Founder and CEO, Addiction Policy Forum
Shannon McLoughlin, Social Worker in Hamilton, Canada
