In this episode, Amanda Zimmerman, PA-C, sheds light on the opioid crisis in the United States. She brings attention to the fact that prescription pain medications can be a gateway to substance misuse and opioid use disorder not just for the individuals who were prescribed the medication, but also for those around them—emphasizing the importance of counseling patients on safe opioid practices. Counseling points include when patients should contact their providers, how to store pain medication, and how to dispose of pain medications. Listen as Ms Zimmerman conducts a patient visit to demonstrate how to effectively communicate these points in clinical practice.
