阿片类药物计划

The 卫生科学与职业学院 (CHSP) is committed to bringing the resources of the largest health-focused college in 俄亥俄州 to bear on the crisis of opioid abuse across the state. 

我们致力于以下活动:

• 创新. Rather than applying standard formulae and templates to the problem of opioid abuse, we are committed to finding innovative new best-practice models that are most responsive to local conditions surrounding opioid use and abuse
• 协作. 我们相信, 而我们自己可以做得很好, 我们可以和大学内外的合作伙伴一起做得很好. A statewide network of partners assures we can bring the greatest possible capacity to bear on the issue of opioid abuse.
• Community-responsive. 而不是走出去告诉社区他们需要做什么, our approach is to engage communities in ways that show we understand the nature of the issue as they "live" it. 我们的目标是制定符合当地实际情况的干预措施. This also means that we often facilitate the flow of resources to community partners who may demonstrate best practice models of impact.

合作

The 卫生科学与职业学院 is leading three broad, collaborative efforts:

• 俄亥俄州人口健康联盟: This alliance represents a statewide collaboration that brings together diverse resources of the many partners to promote detailed, 严格关注阿片类药物滥用问题.
• 俄亥俄河谷成瘾研究协会: Northern Kentucky University has led the development of this new consortium focusing on addiction research across the 俄亥俄州 River Valley region. CHSP recently agreed to join Northern Kentucky in the leadership of the development of the consortium. newbb电子平台 will also host the next research conference of the consortium later this spring as a way to showcase opioid abuse research and intervention programming across the region.
• 阿巴拉契亚公共卫生合作努力: CHSP reached out to the College of Public Health at East Tennessee State University (ETSU) to mutually address a variety of public health issues including opioid abuse throughout the Appalachian region. ETSU is already conducting research in southeast 俄亥俄州 so this is a logical connection for us as a collaborative partner with strong community connections.

社区嵌入式编程的例子

Through the above collaborations and other relationships with local organizations and agencies, the 卫生科学与职业学院 has undertaken a number of community initiatives with the goals of improving local conditions and outcomes while also promoting understanding of best practices in addressing opioid abuse. 这些活动的一些例子包括:

• 雅典希望: 雅典 HOPE is a collaborative task force of agencies throughout 雅典 County that provide programming related to opioid use and abuse. 成员包括医疗保健实体, 学校, 执法机构, 人类服务机构, 公共卫生官员. CHSP led the development of the task force and provides leadership for its ongoing operation. This represents the best effort at organizing community-wide opioid abuse response across entities. The taskforce is focused on prevention and education and is working to educate families about the facts surrounding opioid abuse, 减少污名, 提供社区活动，支持康复中的人, and provide education about emerging trends and best practices to frontline professionals.
• 佩里县阿片类药物合作: Various entities in 佩里 County have established the 佩里 County Drug Prevention Coalition, 一个处理该县药物滥用问题的实体组织.

• 劳伦斯县新生儿戒断综合征干预: 与马歇尔大学医学院合作, CHSP will extend support programs for pregnant women who have struggled with opioid abuse. 马歇尔已经在亨廷顿实施了这个项目, 西维吉尼亚州, 邻近Ironton, 俄亥俄州, 以及周边地区. This collaboration will allow the two universities to explore program impacts in both communities so as to better inform strategies to reduce Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome.
• 社区卫生工作者/病人导航员项目: 作为我们新的埃格利病人交流计划的一部分, CHSP will embed clinical faculty as community health workers and patient navigators in 雅典, 佩里, 以及华盛顿县. These individuals will be embedded in community organizations addressing opioid abuse and will spend half their time providing direct community services and the other half preparing students to work as patient navigators and community health workers.
• 数据分析项目: A team of researchers affiliated with the 俄亥俄州 Alliance for Innovation in Population Health will undertake a large data analytics project aimed at understanding the etiology of an individual's progression from first opioid use to death from overdose so as to better inform the timing of prevention and treatment interventions.
• 阿片类药物技术挑战: A group of 18 students from across the University were chosen from a pool of more than 130 applicants to create and submit a proposal for the state's 阿片类药物技术挑战. 挑战分为三个阶段, prize-based competition to find technology-based solutions that address or improve opioid abuse prevention, 治疗和过量避免和反应.
