Summary

The aim of this study is to pilot test a web-based, patient-centered educational program that encourages the patient to have an informed discussion about pain medication options with their emergency department (ED) provider.

Conditions

  • Prescription Drug Abuse

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

MyHealthyChoices

My Healthy Choices explains what opioid pain medications are, assesses and explains the patient's risk factors related to taking opioids, assesses patient preferences about pain medications, and produces a tailored patient report based on the answers. The patient is encouraged to show the report to the treating ED clinician so they can discuss medication options for treating the patient's pain. Following discharge from the ED, intervention group participants discharged with a prescription pain reliever receive messages about safe medication use, storage, and disposal and access to an educational web portal that contains more information on prescription pain medications and safety.

OTHER

Health Risk Assessment

The WellSource health risk assessment content focuses on general health promotion, and the participant's overall health and wellness. A summary report based on the participants' answers is sent to their email address.
