About the Series
Across Washington, hospital teams are working every day to reduce opioid‑related harm and strengthen patient‑centered care. This year, WSHA is honored to launch the 2026 Opioid Harm Prevention Peer Forum Series—a statewide learning community built by hospitals, for hospitals.
This series reflects the feedback we received from hospital leaders about the areas they most want support, including:

Opportunities to learn directly from peers
Practical tools for screening, training, shared decision making, and MOUD prescribing, including long-acting injectable buprenorphine
Strategies for community resource linkage to ongoing care
Support for pediatric pain management and reducing variation
Tools to leverage MME/24 hour for ongoing improvement
Guidance for caring for pregnant persons and adolescents with OUD
