Alabama's Prescription Drug Monitoring Program: The Essentials

The Alabama Health Professionals' Opioid and Pain Management Education (ALAHOPE)

The platform is live at ALAHOPE.

ALAHOPE is a product of the Prescribers and Dispensers Committee of the Alabama Opioid Overdose and Addiction Council. This work has been a collaboration of the Jefferson County Department of Health, the Department of Health Services Administration at the University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Health Professions, the Alabama Board of Medical Examiners, and multiple subject matter experts from across the state of Alabama. The target populations for this curriculum are health professions students at the undergraduate or graduate level and practicing healthcare professionals.

Physicians, dentists, pharmacists, nurses, and social workers can earn free continuing education credit. This content meets the new educational requirements of DEA-registered practitioners. For more information, see the MATE Training Letter.
