A 6 hour training event with Michael Gaudet, LICSW, LDCP 

8:30am– 4:00pm on June 20, 2019


PRESENTATION: This course will provide an updated version of the NIDA and SAMHSA’s Blending Initiative product, originally entitled “Buprenophine Treatment:  A Training for Multidisciplinary Professionals”.  The primary goal of this training package is to create awareness among addiction professionals about medications currently approved by the FDA and used in the treatment of opioid dependence.  The course includes information about what to expect when someone is treated with medication, information about the legislation that permits office based buprenorphine treatment, the science of addiction, the mechanism of each medication, patient selection criteria and associated patient counseling and therapeutic issues.  As a result of this training participants will:

  • Learn about the history of opioid treatment in the United States;
  • Discuss changes in the laws regarding treatment of opioid addiction and the implications for the treatment system;
  • Learn how medication will benefit the delivery of opioid treatment and the types of medications used to treat opioid use disorder; and
  • Possess knowledge about the demographics of people affected by opioid use disorder.

ABOUT THE PRESENTER: Michael Gaudet LICSW earned his undergraduate degree in 1981 at Bridgewater State College and his MSW from Rhode Island College in 1984. He is currently the Director of Quality Assurance for eleven outpatient mental health and substance abuse programs in Massachusetts, with a primary office at Arbour Counseling Services, Fall River, MA. In addition, he serves as the organization’s Compliance and Privacy Officer and is a surveyor for CARF International.   Mike has extensive clinical and supervision experience in mental health and substance abuse treatment. He trains and consults across the country on clinical and professional growth topics, and, since 1986, is a faculty member of the New England Institute of Addiction Studies.  He has been involved in several projects designed to advance the use of medication in substance abuse recovery, including the use of Methadone, Buprenorphine and Naltrexone, through the Addiction Technology Transfer Center of New England.
