VIRTUAL OPIOID DEPENDENCY PROGRAM
The Virtual Opioid Dependency Program (VODP) is an Opioid Agonist Therapy (OAT) program delivered in partnership by ARCHES and Alberta Health Services. OAT is an effective treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD) and is a key strategy to reduce the harms of opioid use by providing structured access to long acting opioids to improve stability and day-to day function. Through the Treatment Services Coordinator, participants can access same day prescriptions for Suboxone and Methadone.
The Treatment Services Coordinator provides case management of clients until they’re transitioned to a local OAT Clinic in their area. The local OAT Clinic will continue to support them in their recovery journey. To learn more or connect with the Treatment Services Coordinator, please call (403) 942-5706.
