 Tri-County health care was recently awarded a nearly $40,000 grant to implement a new opioid management program. The program will focus on opioid use for chronic non-cancer pain management. TCHC will soon appoint a registered nurse case manager for patients to have individual based care. The new funds will take the program from a small group to a large community-based effort. We are going to use that grant to continue the work. We are working closely with law enforcement and very many public health agencies, schools, might be churches. We're working on developing that program. It's a community-wide problem. It's going to be a community-wide solution. Tri-County health care plans to use physical therapy as a large part of the program. If you enjoyed this segment of Lakeland News, please consider making a tax-deductible contribution to Lakeland PBS.
