Awesome!! Much needed! Tell her to contact me b/c I now have a story I never thought I would have to tell. Had to get legal involved for a patient’s right- never though the words “fight with Hospice” would ever come out of my mouth. It was a super rare case if they need one to study!!

Congratulations on your great accomplishment Marianne!

CCN's Dr. Mercy Mumba and her team received one of 375 grant awards made by the NIH in fiscal year 2019 to apply scientific solutions to reverse the national opioid crisis. Dr. Mumba's proposal, entitled “A Mindfulness and Peer Mentoring Program to Improve Adherence to Medication Assisted Treatment for Opioid Use Disorders," was the only project in Alabama to receive this funding. https://nursing.ua.edu/?p=7268

To help end the opioid crisis that continues to grip the nation, NIH made 375 research awards across 41 states worth $945 million in FY2019 through the Helping to End Addiction Long-term Initiative or #nihHEALinitiative. The trans-NIH research effort aims to improve treatments for chronic pain, curb the rates of opioid use disorder (OUD) and overdose and promote long-term recovery from opioid addiction. https://bit.ly/2mTUrIA ...
