Overview:<\/h3>\n

The U.S. population aged 65 years and older is forecast to double by 2050. The combination of the growing population of older Americans and the increasing rates of opioid-related harms in this population will likely result in even larger increases in the absolute numbers of opioid-related hospitalizations, ED visits, and mortality among older adults. Yet, substance use disorders in older adults have been under-identified for decades in part due to other co-morbid conditions that may obscure or be used to explain symptoms of substance use\/misuse.<\/p>\n

Objectives:<\/h3>\n

1. Describe screening instruments for opioid use focused on the older adult population.
\n2. Discuss non-stigmatizing approaches for OUD screening and brief intervention among older adults.
\n3. List and apply medication options for treating opioid use disorder.<\/p>\n
