Description of CME Course
The ECHO program will use the “all-teach, all-learn” case-based telementoring educational protocol developed by Project ECHO. Substance Use in Hospital Care ECHO: Beyond the Basics is a 12-session, case-based telementoring program designed to advance the knowledge, confidence, and clinical practice of interdisciplinary hospital-based healthcare professionals caring for patients with substance use disorders (SUD). Building upon foundational addiction medicine knowledge, this ECHO will equip participants with evidence-informed, practical strategies to manage complex substance use presentations in hospital settings, improve patient outcomes, strengthen harm reduction and treatment engagement efforts, and support the development of sustainable hospital-based addiction care programs.
