Brief report: A cross-sectional survey of provider engagement with family members following patient drug overdose death
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to assess provider preparedness and experiences in engaging with families after a patient overdose death. While a majority of providers recognized the importance of communicating with families (78.2%), only a small fraction felt well-prepared for these interactions (22.6%). This highlights a significant gap between providers' beliefs about the necessity of family engagement and their actual practices, suggesting a need for targeted interventions.
