We searched the world literature to come up with the best treatment without using opioids for many of these common conditions, and we were very, very successful.
What if legislation could truly make a difference in the fight against opioid addiction? In this episode of Cover 2 Resources, the spotlight is on H.R.6, also known as the Support for Patients and Communities Act, signed into law by President Trump in 2018. This isn't just another piece of legislation; it's a lifeline for several groundbreaking programs. Host Greg McNeil revisits three impactful initiatives—ALTO, Lily’s Place, and AnchorED—that have been making waves in previous episodes. Ever heard of ALTO?
It's an innovative program from St. Joseph Healthcare in Patterson, New Jersey, that offers alternatives to opioids for pain management. Remarkably, 75% of patients report effective pain relief without opioids. Imagine that! The episode includes snippets from an earlier conversation with Dr. Rosenberg, diving into how ALTO is changing the game. Next up is Lily’s Place, a haven for newborns suffering from neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS).
These tiny warriors receive specialized medical care and their mothers get essential guidance on how to care for them. It's heartwarming to hear about the lives being transformed here. And then there's AnchorED, a program that provides comprehensive treatment for adolescents in emergency departments. It's more than just immediate care; it's about setting young people on a path to recovery.
The episode also touches on the broader challenges and progress in combating opioid addiction, emphasizing the crucial role of federal support and community partnerships. While the podcast offers a wealth of information, it never loses sight of the human stories at its core. For anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode serves as both a resource and a beacon of hope.
Tune in to discover how these programs are making a real difference and learn what you can do to help.
