Emergency Medicine; Pain Management and Substance Use Disorders

This dual-focus conference addresses critical challenges in both unscheduled and longitudinal patient care. The curriculum provides strategies for managing acute presentations in emergency settings, alongside in-depth guidance on pain management and addiction medicine. Sessions led by Dr. Tony Bleetman cover emergency medicine essentials, while Dr. Elisabeth Fowlie Mock explores the overdose crisis, alcohol use disorder, and benzodiazepine risks. Among the topics covered, Dr. Mock will present current tapering guidelines and treatments for opioid use disorder, while Dr. Bleetman will discuss error prevention and safe sedation. This program provides up to 16.00 credits relevant to a wide range of healthcare professionals seeking to improve patient outcomes. The sessions are held aboard the Eurodam, allowing for focused learning away from daily practice demands.
