Simulation In Motion - Montana’s Post

Addressing Maternal Overdoses in Montana The opioid crisis is severely impacting pregnant women. Since 1999, the opioid mortality rate among women has surged by over 500%, with opioid use disorder more than quadrupling. Unintentional drug overdose has become a leading cause of death among pregnant and postpartum women. Despite these alarming statistics, only 6% of Montana’s SUD facilities have programs for pregnant and postpartum women. At SIM-MT, we’re stepping up to address this gap with lifesaving training programs. Together, we can help mothers and their babies overcome these challenges through education and intervention. #MaternalHealth #OpioidCrisis #Healthcare #SIMMT #Education
