Julie Priebe: Navigating Addiction Recovery with Hope and Narcan

One of the things that has happened because of this epidemic is that we are talking more now about addiction, and not just to opiates, but to every addiction.
Imagine having a guide through the turbulent waters of addiction recovery. That's precisely what Julie Priebe offers as an Addiction Recovery Nurse Navigator (ARNN) for CommQuest Services. In this episode of 'Hope Discovered', Julie shares her journey from working on detox units to becoming an ARNN, highlighting the transformative power of hope in her work.
Julie dives into the critical role of ARNNs, emphasizing how they support both individuals battling addiction and their families, making the recovery process a collective effort. She also sheds light on the often misunderstood Narcan, a life-saving medication used to reverse opioid overdoses. Julie tackles the stigma surrounding its use head-on, explaining why it's an essential tool in combating the opioid crisis.
Additionally, the episode explores the benefits of needle exchange programs, which not only promote safer substance use practices but also foster better relationships between users and healthcare providers. Julie's insights are a beacon for anyone navigating the complex landscape of addiction recovery, offering both practical advice and emotional support. Whether you're directly affected by addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode is a must-listen for its blend of professional expertise and heartfelt encouragement.
