Patient education and discussion are critical before initiating therapy. When starting opioid therapy for acute, subacute, or chronic pain, clinicians should prescribe immediate-release opioids instead of extended-release/long-acting (“ER/LA”) opioids. ER/LA opioids should be “reserved for severe, continuous pain.”.

You know, most, most ERs admit, you know, far fewer than 50% of their patients. They go to observation and go home or just get discharged straight from the ER? The one thing that we know is that education alone will not actually deliver behavior change. So I’m going to be called every 20 minutes to go to the ER.

And of the ER screening program, I’ve seen 266 people, 266 goals of care conversations in the ER, which were pretty significant. Darrell: Gosh, in the ER group, at the end of the first surge, had me come to their staff meeting, gave me a beautiful award and made me an honorary member of the Emergency Medicine Group.

Patients will come into the ER, they bypass the inpatient experience entirely, and go straight home. For the most part, programs are doing, twice a day, nursing visits. They’re doing, once a day, either MD, or MP, or nurse practitioner visits in the home as well. And that’s more standard. Tacara: I agree.
