Show Notes
MultiCare Deaconess Hospital introduces a game-changing pilot program for opioid addiction treatment. Patients receive an injectable form of buprenorphine, providing five days of relief from withdrawal symptoms and cravings. This method, which turns into a slow-release gel, offers a more manageable alternative to daily pills, especially for those without stable housing or reliable access to pharmacies. The program aims to reduce overdose risks and support long-term recovery through monthly shots and local clinic referrals. Deaconess will evaluate the programs success after one year.
