Maintaining Recovery
Recorded: Thursday, October 17, 2024 - Friday, October 18, 2024
On-Demand Session
Overview
Addiction is a chronic medical disease, and recovery looks different from traditional acute care models. This session will explore a contextual model of addiction recovery and delve into different tools that may support individuals in maintaining recovery including contingency management, expanded medication access, and culturally attuned interventions.
This session is comprised of 4 presentations that deep dive into different aspects of the overall topic.
- A Contextual Model of Addiction Recovery
This session will review models of addiction and propose a more central role for the context as a determinant of behavior in addiction and recovery. Models of addiction, though reductive in nature, are communicated broadly to the public and impact perceptions of addiction, scientific priorities, clinical practice, and policy decisions. Brain disease, moral, and choice models account for some, but not all, of the phenomenology of addiction, and are mechanistically limited in scope. This session will outline contextual models of addiction and recovery, review empirical evidence supporting the role of context, and outline potential benefits of a contextual model at the level of the individual and society in the areas of science, clinical practice, and policy. - Contingency Management
This session will review the goals of contingency management and the principles that underly the treatment approach. This session will discuss the key metrics or elements that make up a contingency management intervention. This session will review the evidence base that supports this treatment approach, with a particular focus on adolescents and the unique aspects to consider when using contingency management with youth. - Expanding Methadone Access Across New York State
The session will review changes in federal regulations to methadone treatment for opioid use disorder, discuss data evaluating the impact of regulatory changes on the delivery of methadone treatment and on opioid use disorder outcomes, and present new strategies that leverage regulatory changes to expand methadone treatment for opioid use disorder. - Imani Breakthrough Program: A Culturally-Attuned, Faith-Based Opioid Recovery Intervention for Black and LatinX Communities
This session will discuss the Imani Breakthrough Project. Imani is a community delivered, faith-based, person-centered, culturally informed, harm reduction recovery program that provides an integrated approach to engaging Black and Latinx people and other vulnerable individuals to substance use supports, by focusing on dimensions of holistic health and wellness, reconnecting people to their sense of community, and by providing harm reduction and telemedicine and referrals for MAT. Come learn about ways we can effectively collaborate with churches and people with lived/living experiences.
These sessions are intended for experienced learners and are taught an intermediate or advanced level. The target audience includes:
- Addiction medicine specialists who are interested in the latest research in the field and its translation to clinical practice
- Physicians and other healthcare professionals who treat patients with addiction and seek an advanced level of knowledge
- Scientists, researchers, public health officials and advocates dedicated to the field of addiction medicine
This conference addresses all 6 ACGME Competencies.
Learning Objectives
At the end of the course, learners should be able to:
- Discuss the important, new, scientific breakthroughs in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of addiction.
- Critically evaluate new science and describe how it changes the current understanding of addiction and co-occurring medical or psychiatric disorders.
- Develop practical applications for integrating new and emerging science into practice.
- Identify gaps in the field of addiction medicine that future research can address.
- Create a network of colleagues and resources to support the learner's practice or form future research collaborations.
