The Royal Australian College of GPs (RACGP) is encouraging Victorian GPs, future GPs, and nurse practitioners to boost their skills in helping patients with opioid dependence.
It comes amid a severe shortage of doctors prescribing medication for opioid dependence. The College has responded by relaunching its Medication Assisted Treatment for Opioid Dependence (MATOD) training .
RACGP Victoria Chair Dr Anita Munoz urged those eligible to sign up.
