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.
Measures treatment outcomes across four domains: substance use, health risk behavior, physical and psychological health, and personal/social functioning.
Assesses quality of life across physical, psychological, social, and environmental domains.
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.
Assesses the presence of withdrawal symptoms from opioids using a 9-point scale to describe how the patient has been feeling in the past 24 hours.
