Many patients are affected by substance use, yet it often remains an under-identified factor in their overall health. Healthcare providers are uniquely positioned to identify risky substance use early, initiate nonjudgmental conversations and connect patients to appropriate support. This presentation will provide practical strategies for engaging patients in open, respectful dialogue about their substance use using evidence-based tools like SBIRT. Attendees will learn how to normalize conversations, reduce stigma and integrate substance use discussions into routine care to improve outcomes and build stronger therapeutic relationships
