Episode 186 - A Paramedic's Guide To The Opiate Epidemic


Listen Later

We're lucky to have a special guest on this podcast episode to discuss a topic that, unfortunately, all of us in emergency care encounter all too frequently: the opiate epidemic. Peter Canning is a paramedic who has lived through the epidemic while working on the ambulance in the New England epicenter. This discussion navigates Peter's progression through newer terminology like stigma and harm reduction in an effort to provide compassionate and best-practice care for our OUD patients.
