The goal of this webinar is to provide hospitals with information surrounding the Illinois Drug Overdose Prevention Program (DOPP), a resource designed by the Illinois Department of Human Services (IDHS) to provide free take home naloxone kits to at-risk individuals. Naloxone is a safe and effective medication used to reverse opioid overdoses and save lives. Providing naloxone kits directly to patients with opioid use disorder who are at risk of a fatal overdose is a crucial step in harm reduction and preventing overdose deaths.  

This informational session will outline recent updates to the DOPP that have resulted in a streamlined and simplified hospital enrollment, ordering and reporting process. Guidance for how hospitals can successfully implement a take home naloxone program within their emergency departments and inpatient units will also be provided.

Social drivers of health (SDOH) impact individuals before they interact with the healthcare system and continue to affect them after receiving care. Adopting sustainable processes to screen for and address social needs can help improve patient health outcomes. This two-part webinar series will guide you in developing a screening process and present strategies to strengthen connections between healthcare systems and community-based organizations. You’ll learn how to assess whether efforts to address patients’ social needs are effective and how your efforts are impacting patients.

The first webinar, “Integrating Social Care into Your Medical Practice,” will help clinical teams build foundational processes to incorporate social care into medical care delivery.

The second webinar, “Addressing Social Needs at the Individual and Community Level,” will assist teams in moving from screening and referral to building systems for sustainable, measurable impact.
