Background: There were 527,000 hospitalizations due to opioid use in 2012, which equates to more than $15 billion in medical care costs (Ronan & Herzig, 2016). Providers report significant barriers in treating patients with substance use disorders (SUDs), including feelings of unpreparedness to treat addiction (Calcaterra et al., 2021). Advance practice provider (APP) education lacks […]

Developing quality IPE learning activities that are meaningful and relevant to all learners can be challenging due to different levels of exposure and training in the discipline-specific curriculum. Purpose: We developed an interprofessional quality improvement/patient safety (QI/PS) workshop […]
