Education
A primary objective of the Southern New Jersey MAT Center of Excellence’s mission is to educate health care providers about the best ways to treat problematic drug use, including substance use disorders, and to connect them with available resources to lessen the negative health impacts caused by drug use.
Below, you will find educational opportunities that have been developed using the best available evidence.
Lectures
Addiction Medicine experts within the Southern New Jersey Medications for Addiction Treatment Center of Excellence offer free lectures on the fourth Friday of each month from January through September. Running from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. on those days, the lectures cover a wide range of addiction medicine topics.
Continuing Medical Education credits are available for these lectures.
Shadowing Opportunities
The SNJMATCOE provides opportunities for health care professionals—both clinical and non-clinical—to visit Cooper’s Center for Healing to shadow experts in addiction medicine as they discuss and care for patients. This opportunity is available for any member of the care team – prescribers, behavioral health clinicians, navigators, nurses, etc.
If you’d like to schedule an opportunity, please reach out to Kelly Morrow at morrow-kelly@cooperhealth.edu.
Elbow-to-elbow Opportunities
Members of the SNJMATCOE are also available to visit you to do onsite training and meetings with your teams. Physicians certified in addiction medicine often present grand rounds to health care teams across South Jersey or consult on complex cases involving addiction or xylazine-associated wounds. Please reach out to Kelly Morrow at morrow-kelly@cooperhealth.edu if you’d like one of our expert providers to come to you.
