THE DEFINITIVE GUIDE FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PROFESSIONALS FIGHTING THE OPIOID EPIDEMICThe opioid crisis has devastated families and communities across the United States. Changes in policing and medical practices have been swift, but they've done little to address the fundamental causes of substance misuse and addiction. The necessity for upstream intervention is clear, but what does that look like? A Public Health Guide to Ending the Opioid Epidemic does what only a public health approach can: offer credible, scalable, and empirically supported approaches to uprooting one of society's most pernicious challenges. It outlines the core tenets of the public health approach to substance misuse and addiction, which alongside clinical approaches (prescription guidelines and monitoring, increased access to overdose-reversal medication, and medication-assisted treatment availability)offers a roadmap for end-to-end response to this diverse problem.
