Opioid Response Network
Opioid Response Network
The District of Columbia Academy of Family Physicians (DCAFP) received a grant from the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) National Research Network (NRN) to provide education and training in opioid use disorder and substance use disorder (OUD/SUD). In collaboration with the AAFP National Research Network (NRN) and the Opioid Response Network (ORN), the DCAFP will coordinate the educational offerings.
#AAFP president @tilimd shares a timely reminder on the heels of #Match2023: We need more PCPs, and we need them practicing in communities where a family physician or primary care doctor is often the only one trained to meet their health care needs.
The Match reminds us of the importance of a strong family medicine workforce
Primary care doctors are community health leaders – and we need more of them in more communities.
