Recorded: Thursday, April 4, 2024 to Sunday, April 7, 2024
On-Demand Session
Overview
This 75-minute on-demand session from the ASAM 55th Annual Conference addresses the importance of discussing surrogate decision makers in patients with use disorders.
People with use disorders may have unconventional family units due to events related to their use disorder which make statutory surrogate decision maker hierarchies less appropriate. Integrating advanced care planning in particular the identification of a healthcare power of attorney during any healthcare episode will improve the care received by patients with use disorders not able to make decisions for themselves; respecting and validating their autonomy and chosen family unit.

This session addresses the following ACGME Competencies: Patient Care and Procedural Skills, Interpersonal and Communication Skills

Learning Objectives
Upon completion, learners will be able to:
- Recognize the importance of discussing surrogate decision makers in patients with use disorders
