Center's goals are aimed at training and educating practitioners and students across the health care continuum, with a focus on pharmacists and pharmacy students, on issues of prescription drug misuse, addiction, dependence, and pain management.</p> <h3>Pharmacist Continuing Education</h3> <p>The PREMIER Center will work with professional organizations and content experts to develop CE programs focused on prescription drug misuse issues and regulatory requirements. The Center offers robust educational programming that cover topics related to prescription drug misuse, opioid use disorder and other topics that meet the educational needs of pharmacists in all practice areas. Beginning in 2019, Texas pharmacists will be required to participate in continuing education related to pain management and prescribing and monitoring of prescription controlled substances.</p> <p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Current Offerings:</strong></p> <p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>"Quality Improvement and Opioid Stewardship Implementation in Health-System Pharmacy Operations"</strong> (UAN: 0156-9999-24-070-P; Credit Hours: 1.0/0.1 CEUs), expires 07/01/2027, Presenters: Nina Smith, Ph.D., Matthew Wanat, Pharm.D.</p> <p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a href="https://www.lecturepanda.com/r/24-070">Register Now</a></p> <p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>"Opioid Stewardship"</strong> (UAN: 0156-9999-23-017-H08-P; Credit Hours: 1.0/0.1 CEUs), expires 03/13/2026, Presenter: Elisabeth Wang, Pharm.D., BCCP, Clinical Assistant Professor, UHCOP</p> <p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a href="https://www.lecturepanda.com/a/23-017">Register Now</a></p> <p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>"Chronic Pain Management: Non-Opioid Therapies"</strong> (UAN: 0156-9999-23-018-H08-P; Credit Hours: 1.0/0.1 CEUs), expires 03/13/2026, Presenters: Randa Al-Saadi, Pharm.D., and Harshil Patel, Pharm.D.</p> <p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a href="https://www.lecturepanda.com/a/23-018">Register Now</a></p> <p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>"Loperamide: The Unexpected Player in the Opioid Epidemic" </strong>(UAN:0156-9999-23-016-H08-P; Credit Hours: 1.0/0.1 CEUs), expires 03/13/2026, Presenter: Austin De La Cruz, Pharm.D., BCPP, Clinical Associate Professor, UHCOP</p> <p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a href="https://www.lecturepanda.com/a/23-016">Register Now</a><a href="https://www.lecturepanda.com/v2/announcement/ag1zfnJ4Y2V0cmFja2VychMLEgZDRVVzZXIYgIDAipCbiwoM/ag1zfnJ4Y2V0cmFja2VycicLEgZDRVVzZXIYgIDAipCbiwoMCxIHTGVjdHVyZRiAgMD-5taTCgw"></a><a href="https://www.lecturepanda.com/v2/announcement/ag1zfnJ4Y2V0cmFja2VychMLEgZDRVVzZXIYgIDAipCbiwoM/ag1zfnJ4Y2V0cmFja2VycicLEgZDRVVzZXIYgIDAipCbiwoMCxIHTGVjdHVyZRiAgMDelOaBCww"></a><a href="https://www.lecturepanda.com/v2/announcement/ag1zfnJ4Y2V0cmFja2VychMLEgZDRVVzZXIYgIDAipCbiwoM/ag1zfnJ4Y2V0cmFja2VycicLEgZDRVVzZXIYgIDAipCbiwoMCxIHTGVjdHVyZRiAgMDBoJODCQw"></a></p> <h3>Student Training and Research</h3> <p>Although issues such as misuse, diversion and other aspects of controlled substance prescriptions have been part of the college's <a href="../../../../prospective-students/pharmd/index.php">Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.)</a> curriculum for decades, the "pharmacy academy" has made student education on these and emerging issues a national priority. In June 2016, UH College of Pharmacy announced its commitment to a new initiative led by the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy to prioritize student education on misuse prevention.</p> <p>An example of the college's commitment is by providing travel awards for students to attend the <a href="https://aphainstitute.pharmacist.com/">American Pharmacists Association Institute on Alcoholism & Drug Dependencies</a>, an annual multiday program of workshops, panel discussions and other activities in Utah for students to better understand issues of addiction/dependencies, learn tools and strategies for recovery, and develop programs for implementation on campuses. Funding for future student attendance will be provided through The PREMIER Center.</p> <p>In addition, students in the college's <a href="../../../../prospective-students/graduate-programs/phop/index.php">Pharmaceutical Health Outcomes and Policy Concentration of the Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences</a> degree program and the <a href="../../../../prospective-students/pharmd/index.php">Pharm.D.</a> degree program will be actively engaged in research projects undertaken by center member faculty investigators.</p> <h3>Professional Resource</h3> <p>Center researchers serve as a valuable resource for practitioners, policymakers, educators and other stakeholders on issues related to controlled substance prescription misuse and prevention.
