Understanding engagement with an emergency department-based peer navigator intervention for opioid overdose prevention for a subset of patients experiencing homelessness
The leading cause of death among people experiencing homelessness is overdose. New York City operates the Relay initiative, which sends trained peer “Wellness Advocates” (WAs) to meet patients in the emergency department (ED) who have presented with an opioid-involved overdose. A high proportion of Relay patients experience homelessness. We conducted in-depth, one-on-one qualitative interviews with patient recipients of Relay services, Relay peer…
A descriptive study of drug overdose epidemics, overdose prevention efforts, and opioid settlement fund distribution across six states
Opioid Overdose Mortality Among Patients Receiving a Peer-Delivered, Emergency Department–Based Nonfatal Opioid Overdose Intervention in New York City, 2017–2022
Objectives. To measure risk of fatal opioid overdose within 1 year of engagement with Relay’s nonfatal overdose response initiative and characterize differences in demographics, substance use, and overdose risk factors by service engagement. Methods. We assessed the mortality status of 5006 patients who presented to Relay’s partnered emergency departments (EDs) in New York City for a suspected nonfatal opioid overdose (2017–2022) and accepted pee…
Expanded Naloxone Distribution by Opioid Overdose Prevention Programs to High-Need Populations and Neighborhoods in New York City
The Intentional Self-Medication of 9/11-Related PTSD Symptoms with Alcohol
The self-medication hypothesis may explain the co-morbidity of affective and substance use disorders. Research shows increased prevalence, frequency, and intensity of binge drinking and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among those directly exposed to the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center (WTC), however, little is known about PTSD symptomology and intentional self-medication with alcohol (ISMA) among this group. We used WTC Hea…
Relay
Relay, a peer-delivered response to nonfatal opioid overdoses, provides overdose prevention education, naloxone, support, and linkage to care to opioid overdose survivors for 90 days after an overdose event. From June 2017 to December 2018, Relay operated in seven New York City emergency departments and enrolled 649 of the 876 eligible individuals seen (74%). Preliminary data show high engagement, primarily among individuals not touched by harm r…
Considerations for future disaster registries
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the effectiveness of a targeted outreach program that referred World Trade Center Health Registry (Registry) enrollees, to specific post-disaster health care available through the World Trade Center Health Program (WTCHP) and evaluate differences in outreach effectiveness based on demographic and health characteristics. Design/methodology/approach The Registry’s Treatment Referral Program (TRP) tar…
A qualitative examination of health and health care utilization after the September 11th terror attacks among World Trade Center Health Registry enrollees
Knowledge of the barriers to 9/11-related health care has led to improvements in the Registry's ability to refer eligible enrollees to appropriate treatment programs. These findings highlight areas for consideration in the implementation of the new federal WTC Health Program, now funded under the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act (PL 111-347), which includes provisions for outreach and education
