This collection of tools and resources is for providers, staff, and patients who offer or use services to address substance use, and other interested stakeholders. This collection was originally established following an environmental scan on implementing medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder (OUD) in rural primary care. (See PDFs of Volume 1 (PDF - 609 KB) and Volume 2 (PDF - 1.3 MB) of that scan). Items have been continuously added to this collection since then, and the collection has expanded to cover substance use more broadly, rather than just MAT for OUD.
Provides a score indicating the severity of dependence on opioids using a 5-item questionnaire.
Evaluates opioid treatment using a set of measures among six domains: drug use, HIV risk-taking behavior, social functioning, criminality, health status, and psychological adjustment.
A site for finding high-quality addiction treatment and taking a self-assessment to find which treatment is right for different people.
This page explains relapse prevention by outlining the stages of relapse—emotional, mental, and physical—and offering strategies to recognize early warning signs and intervene before substance use occurs, including a 6-minute video.
The Tobacco, Alcohol, Prescription medication, and other Substance use (TAPS) Tool consists of a combined screening component (TAPS-1) followed by a brief assessment (TAPS-2) for those who screen positive.
