[Dec 26, 2019] Online Lecture on: "Urine Test detecting the presence of drugs"

Dear colleagues,

One of the most important and decisive practices, especially in MMT clinics and SUD treatment facilities in general, is urine testing. Which substances cause a morphine test positive? Positive result duration? How to read and interpret the results? False negative / False positive results? What does the faint / thick test line mean? How to communicate with patients? etc. are all simple but challenging questions for clinic staff regarding urine testing.

While often presented in orientation classes of basic Methadone training courses, during this session, VHATTC-UMP decided to open an online session to more intensively exchange information on this issue. This session is also an opportunity for facilities to discuss the incidents or difficulties they have encountered so that the treatment facilities can learn from the experience. If you have any questions about this topic, please send it to us in advance so that we have time to provide satisfactory answers.

The lecture will still be conducted online under the ZOOM system. Details:
