Stepping up as Healthcare Advocates: The Role of the Pharmacist in Combatting the Opioid Crisis

CEimpact Podcast

The opioid crisis is still among us. In fact, according to the CDC, Opioids were involved in more than 68,000 deaths in 2020, which was 8.5 times the number of opioid-involved overdose deaths in 1999. The rate of drug overdose deaths involving opioids remains high, and CDC continues to track opioid overdose deaths.

In this episode of the Level Up podcast, Ashlee is joined by Richard Logan, a deputy sheriff and pharmacy owner, as they dive into Dr. Logan's experience working within both sectors of the community.
Dr. Logan discusses the future in which pharmacists play a crucial role in tackling this crisis - alongside specific steps on how to reach that future.
Join us, as we explore the world of pharmacy through the eyes of a pharmacist and deputy sheriff.
