OTAC: free training for GPs and other prescribers of opioid dependence treatments

08 Jul 2024

The University of Sydney (funded by the NSW Ministry of Health) is hosting a free one-day training course with local drug and alcohol specialists in South Western Sydney for medical and nurse practitioners to learn more about how to safely prescribe opioid pharmacotherapies (methadone and buprenorphine) for opioid dependence.

The Opioid Treatment Accreditation Course (OTAC) allows medical and nurse practitioners to learn more about the important treatment and gives the opportunity to undertake a clinical place along with being recognised as accredited prescribers of opioid pharmacotherapies for opioid dependence.

The next session will be held at Holiday Inn Warwick Farm on Saturday, 10 August facilitated by Dr Peter Thompson and Dr Jenny James of South Western Sydney Local Health District.
