We need to talk about this topic. I've never seen anything more incredible than the treatment services we provide at Hazelden Betty Ford - and I believe in that you clearly do, Joseph, and for all the people who are part of that effort, you're the driver of it, and it's your personal experience, the fact that you took adversity and turned it into opportunity, your knowledge and your fiery passion that have made it.
Imagine a world where every healthcare professional is well-versed in the intricacies of addiction and recovery. In this episode of 'Let's Talk Addiction & Recovery', host William C. Moyers sits down with Joseph Skrajewski, the Executive Director of Medical and Professional Education at Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation. They discuss how unique educational programs are making a real difference in the fight against addiction.
These intensive, week-long residencies bring together medical students, physicians, pharmacists, psychologists, social workers, and other professionals to the Hazelden Betty Ford campuses. Skrajewski shares how these programs equip participants with the knowledge and skills needed to recognize and respond to addiction challenges effectively. But it’s not just about the curriculum; it's about transforming attitudes and fostering empathy.
Skrajewski also opens up about his personal journey through addiction and how he turned his life around, using his experiences to fuel his passion for education and recovery. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in how professional education can drive meaningful change in addiction treatment and recovery. It’s a conversation filled with insights, personal stories, and a call to action for more comprehensive education in the health and human services fields.
