Help us develop and enhance strategies to support healthcare organizations.
The purpose of this survey is to assess Arizona healthcare leaders and professionals’ perceptions about the Opioid Stewardship Programs (OSPs). OSPs are coordinated organizational interventions aimed at addressing pain and addiction. We have a specific interest in hearing from healthcare leaders and professionals that serve rural populations as they are underrepresented in the OSP literature.
The UArizona Mel & Enid Zuckerman College of Public Health in collaboration with Arizona Center for Rural Health and Comprehensive Pain and Addiction Center is conducting a survey with healthcare leaders and professionals as defined as:
· Healthcare leaders are adults, 18 years of age or older, who hold administrative, clinical, and/or technological leadership positions that support an Arizona rural healthcare organization.
· Healthcare professionals are adults, 18 years of age or older, who work in, or support, rural healthcare in roles such as: administrative support, providers, and community health workers/recovery support specialist.
If interested, at the end of the survey, you can enter to receive a complimentary copy of the American Society of Addiction Medicine’s (ASAM) Pain and Addiction text. Two people will be randomly selected to receive the book.
This information will help us develop and enhance strategies to support healthcare organizations. Arizona healthcare leaders and professionals have communicated that pain and addiction are important public health issues. Please take 15-20 minutes to complete this important survey.
