Despite rising opioid fatalities, attitudes remain indifferent toward those with opioid use disorder (OUD). Utilizing patient voice may be one way to move providers to action. We included persons with OUD in 2 educational sessions as an important tool of attitude change. Post-session surveys demonstrate increased compassion, deeper understanding of challenges, and positive change in attitude. Inclusion of patient voice was identified as the most useful feature of both educational sessions. Four themes emerged: value of patient voice; change in attitude; barriers to change; and enhanced provider role. Future educational sessions should include the voice of persons living with OUD.
尽管阿片类药物致死率不断上升，但人们对患有阿片类药物使用障碍（OUD）的人仍然漠不关心。利用患者的声音可能是促使医疗服务提供者采取行动的一种方式。我们将患有OUD的人纳入了2次教育课程，作为态度转变的一项重要工具。课后调查显示，同情心有所增加，对挑战有了更深入的理解，态度也有了积极的转变。纳入患者的声音被认为是这两次教育课程最有用的特点。出现了四个主题：患者声音的价值；态度的转变；变革的障碍；以及医疗服务提供者角色的强化。未来的教育课程应纳入患有OUD的人的声音。
