Substance Use Tools & Resources
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 0.69 MB] and Volume 2 [PDF 1.28 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.

Management of Opioid Withdrawal and Overdose (Revised)
The slides for this module describe the management of opioid withdrawal, including induction on to maintenance medication treatment, and overdose. Given the current dimensions of the opioid epidemic and elevated rates of prescribing high-potency opioids, they focus on strategies for implementing effective treatments for opioid use disorder.

Obstetric Care for Women with Opioid Use Disorder Patient Safety Bundle
The Council on Patient Safety in Women’s Health Care disseminates patient safety bundles to help facilitate the standardization process. This bundle reflects emerging clinical, scientific, and patient safety advances as of the date issued and is subject to change. The information should not be construed as dictating an exclusive course of treatment or procedure to be followed. Although the components of a particular bundle may be adapted to local resources, standardization within an institution is strongly encouraged.
Obstetric Provider Toolkit for Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders and SUD
