Summary

This study explores whether emergency medical services (EMS) can safely start buprenorphine treatment for people with opioid use disorder right at the scene of an emergency. Researchers will first test how feasible and acceptable this approach is, then measure how many patients stay in treatment within 10 days. The goal is to help more people begin recovery quickly after an overdose or crisis.
