Our second CE, “Acute Pain Management for People with Opioid Use Disorder,” discusses how to manage acute pain effectively in patients receiving medication-assisted treatment for opioid use disorder, which incorporates methadone, buprenorphine, or naltrexone. The authors of our next article, “Original Research: Journalists’ Experiences with Using Nurses as Sources in Health News Stories,” interviewed health journalists to better understand their perceptions of the barriers and facilitators to using nurses as sources. “Workplace Violence Training Using Simulation” describes how an interdisciplinary team at an Ohio health system developed a training program to address workplace violence, which included classroom learning, simulation training for active shooters, and hands-on self-defense techniques. In addition, there’s News, Reflections, Drug Watch, Art of Nursing, and more.
