Join us for a very important conversation about our nation’s
greatest public health challenge. This educational and interactive
program will feature experts in the addiction treatment field, ethical
prescribers, and those who have experienced an addiction to
prescription drugs who have also been impacted by this national health
epidemic. Special guest, Steve Moriconi, DMD will address opioid "best
practice" prescribing to help us become informed health care patients.
Dr. Moriconi is the Pennsylvania Dental Association’s official
lecturer on Safe Prescribing Practices. Together we will: become
informed health care consumers develop language we can use with
prescribers understand who is vulnerable to opioid dependence break
through the stigma that keeps people from seeking treatment address
pain management hear real stories about opioid addiction and recovery
All are welcome. It is vital that we come together as a community and
learn all we can about opioids, both prescribed (such as Vicodin) and
illicit (such as heroin), and their potential for addiction. Thank you
to Montgomery County's Office of Drug & Alcohol for supporting this
program!
