75% of overdose deaths involve opioids. Every 5 minutes, a life is lost to an opioid overdose. 4 in 5 people with heroin addiction started with a prescription. These numbers are heartbreaking—but prevention is possible. When patients and families understand the risks, they can make informed choices about pain management. Together, we can break the cycle and build a future of hope. ?? #CWCAlliance #OpioidPrevention #WellnessForAll #LifeCareSpecialist #PatientAdvocacy #EducationSavesLives Source: National Institute on Drug Addiction

Opioid dependence isn’t a lack of willpower—it’s a change in brain chemistry. Over time, these medications lower dopamine receptors, making the body crave more to feel the same relief. It’s not a choice; it’s a medical condition. Breaking the stigma starts with knowledge, empathy, and support. ?? #CWCAlliance #OpioidPrevention #WellnessForAll #LifeCareSpecialist #PatientAdvocacy
