Statewide Opioid Screening Day To Help People Assess Their Risk And Find Treatment

October 7, 2020 by ATForum

Hospitals and clinics around Massachusetts are gearing up to help people access treatment for opioid use disorder, as part of a statewide event aimed at increasing awareness of the disease.

The Sept. 22 event, called Massachusetts Opioid Screening and Awareness Day, will feature a free virtual panel discussion with experts in opioid use disorder and people with lived experience. The event is open to the general public.

A website for the initiative has an anonymous screening tool, which people can access 24 hours a day to help them determine if they or a loved one have symptoms of the disease. The virtual event will direct people to the screening site.
