Family physicians see every day how critical mental health care is for patients. That’s why the AAFP fights for better access to behavioral health services — including care for depression, anxiety, and substance use disorder. bit.ly/4ajm80s
Support is key in helping your patient struggling with substance use disorder. SAMHSA offers tools, training, and technical assistance to practitioners in the fields of mental and substance use disorders: buff.ly/3PtcyiC
Keep up to date on the latest guidelines and evidence-based practices for the treatment of opioid use disorder. Together, we can improve patient outcomes. buff.ly/423GKs0
Stigma keeps people from accessing the substance use disorder treatment that could save their lives—as a provider, you can make a difference. Let’s break the stigma and spread awareness that treatment works, and recovery is possible: buff.ly/3W8RhhO
Everyone deserves a path to recovery from substance use disorders, and treatment can be the first step. You can make a difference in the lives of your patients. There are resources available to help you help them. Learn more: buff.ly/3W8RhhO
January is Substance Use Disorder Treatment Month—a time to raise awareness on substance use disorders, offer support, share resources, and break down barriers that keep people from seeking help. Learn more: buff.ly/4fE42YV
Advocacy is an important part of the LAFP. Stay connected with the only professional medical association focused solely on family physicians and let your voice be heard.
