WHY THIS RESPECTED DOCTOR DECIDED TO FOCUS ON ADDICTION Dr. Dean Mayer is a champion for people battling addiction. He's already the Medical Director at Riverton Hospital and now he is also the Chief Medical Officer at Odyssey House. He had an epiphany back in 2014 when he saw that the medical profession wasn't meeting the needs of those in addiction. Now, with a new knowledge of things like MAT (medication assisted treatment), he sees massive improvement.

THIS DOCTOR CAME UP WITH A NEW WAY TO SAVE THE LIVES OF ADDICTS How do you take care of an IV drug user who needs a PICC line to deal with a deadly infection? Until recently that patient stayed in a hospital or a nursing home even though they wanted treatment for the substance use. Then along came Dr. Dean Mayer, the Medical Director at Riverton Hospital. He worked out a novel approach to get those patients into a substance use treatment program while they still had a PICC line inserted. His life saving idea is the topic in this week’s ODYSSEY HOUSE JOURNALS.
