Sharing SUD Treatment Information with Patients' Family and Emergency Contacts

A CoE-PHI eLearning Module

Because it's not always possible to obtain a patient's written consent during an emergency, many programs choose to offer patients the option to sign a consent form for emergency contacts upon admission. A patient may also choose to proactively designate an emergency contact at any point.

The CoE-PHI's new eLearning module Sharing SUD Treatment Information With Patients' Family and Emergency Contacts is designed to help professionals who provide or administer SUD-related services identify what constitutes an emergency, who may serve as a patient's emergency contact, and what a Part 2 program should do to obtain emergency contact information.

This module, the fifth in a series:

Provides you with 24/7 access to the information and training you need to understand and implement privacy regulations on the job
Can be used by organizations to support their new-employee orientation process and annual staff competency trainings
Offers an option to receive a course certificate upon successful completion of knowledge checks
Can be completed in 15-25 minutes making it easy to fit into a typical workday
