Summary

In this episode of ASAM Practice Pearls, Drs. Stephen Taylor and Sharon Stancliff explore the role of social determinants of health (SDoH) in addiction care. They discuss the biopsychosocial model of addiction and emphasize the importance of understanding social factors such as housing, transportation, and economic stability when providing effective care. They highlight the need for clinicians to engage with patients in their environments, advocate for policy changes, and address racial disparities in addiction treatment, offering practical strategies clinicians can use to support patients facing social challenges.
