Organizations Filed Purposes:
To heighten awareness of the disease of addiction as it related to the physical and emotional burdens of chronic pain and to improve the associated care process.
After passing Steve's Law in 2014, we developed an immediate response to the mounting number of overdose deaths in Minnesota. The Overdose Prevention Program provides in-person and virtual community training sessions for the public and organizations to educate communities how to recognize and reverse an opioid overdose. Our partnerships include hospital systems, MAT clinics, detox centers, treatment and sober living facilities, universities, faith-based institutions, first responder agencies, and treatment court, among others. In Minnesota anyone may carry and administer naloxone to save a life and under our novel program model, we welcome anyone to become an overdose prevention trainer for their community. We have built hundreds of organizational partnerships and have trainers located across our state. Upon completion of training, individuals receive an overdose prevention rescue kit, equipped with naloxone, the medication to reverse and opioid overdose. The entirety of our program model, including training materials, organizational policies, and promotional items, is available to any organization, individual or agency across the country to replicate.
The Steve Rummler Hope Network develops and supports local, state, and national legislation and public policies which provide resources and critical funding for solutions to the nation's opioid crisis. The program furthers the public's understanding of addiction through public awareness initiatives such as community events, online education, and traditional and social media outreach. We are working for passage of important leglislation in Minnesota and Washington, D.C., and provide leadership for the FED UP! Coalition and FED UP! Rally (www.FedUpRally.org). We rely heavily on a robust constituency of advocates and community volunteers.
With guidance from our Medical Advisory Committee, the Network's Prescriber Education Program provides leading educational content on pain management, addiction and the responsible prescribing of pain medications for medical students, practicing physicians and other prescribers... education that is still lacking in most medical schools across the country. Through our partnership with Minnesota Medical Association, the Pain and Addiction Lecture Series are recorded and streamed live at the University of Minnesota School of Medicine and made available online for free, enduring Continuing Medical Education (CME), accessible for healthcare providers around the world. We currently have 28 lectures available (totaling 32.5 CME/MOC credits). Lectures feature esteemed academics and practicing physicians with the goal of creating a medical curriculum as it should be; balanced, practical, evidence-based information, free of commercial bias. To date this program has over 5,500 views from clinicians and medical students across the US and internationally reaching 47 states, Caribbean, Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand.
