Demonstrating Effective Leadership

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2019a), deaths due to

opioid overdose have increased almost six-fold in the last 10 years. Opioid overdose is also

responsible for an average of 130 deaths in the United States every day. Although there is a lot of

scholarly literature available on evidence-based approaches to tackle the problem of addiction,

prevention and treatment interventions require an effective coalition. The following assessment

focuses on addressing the issue of opioid addiction in Charleston, West Virginia, through the

formation of effective coalition teams. A thorough analysis of factors contributing to the problem

helps in understanding who needs to be included in the coalition to make it work most

effectively. The analysis of the contributing factors also helps develop strategies, best practices,

and ethical standards that the coalition team should consider to ensure that it achieves its goal.

An effective coalition must also strive to operate in an environment that is diverse and inclusive

and uses evidence in the field to inform every aspect of practice.

Contributing Factors to Opioid Addiction

According to a report by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (2019), West Virginia

reported the highest number of deaths due to opioid overdose. In 2017, about 833 deaths were

reported in West Virginia, with a prevalence rate of about 49.6 deaths for every 100,000 people.

This rate was three times the national rate of 14.6 deaths per 100,000 persons (National Institute

on Drug Abuse, 2019).

There are many factors that contribute to opioid abuse and addiction. Social determinants

of health and their influence on the opioid crisis are important factors to consider. They include

aspects such as education, income stability, social participation, access to affordable health care,

and childhood trauma (Compton & Manseau, 2019). Another contributor to the increase of

opioid addiction is the overprescribing of opioid painkillers. Opioid painkillers are aggressively

marketed as treatments for non-cancer chronic pain, leading to an explosion in the number of

prescriptions for such painkillers (Compton & Manseau, 2019). According to Anderson and

McNair (2018), individuals seeking treatment for opioid addiction are often in despairing social,

financial, and health conditions. These factors result in the widespread use of opioids and the

expansion of opioid availability, which act as major barriers for individuals seeking treatment for

opioid addiction. Poor financial statuses, a lack of positive relationships, peer pressure, limited

coverage of insurance facilities, and habitancy in rural areas also act as barriers for seeking and

accessing quality treatment services.

Coalition to Address Opioid Addiction

In Charleston, West Virginia, a coalition team is being formed by extensively analyzing

the contributing factors that lead to opioid addiction. Members of the coalition will include

medical professionals, mental health professionals, pharmacists, health services professionals,

community leaders, and community members. These members are most likely to have extensive

experience in dealing with the effects of the opioid crisis in both clinical and nonclinical settings,

and they will be able to provide invaluable insights to tackle opioid addiction in the city of

Charleston (Compton & Manseau, 2019).

The team will be composed of nine members as listed in the following table; through

their expertise, the team members will work toward preventing opioid addiction in Charleston

West Virginia.

Issues Affecting Collaboration

Several barriers stand in the way of forming an effective coalition to tackle the opioid

crisis. Those members of the coalition who are also part of another organization, one from which

they could bring in resources to help the coalition, may face resistance from their organizations

about sharing their work, their target populations, and the funding allocated to the organization.

There are potential issues that are endemic to organized groups of people, such as an

unpleasant history with fellow team members, differences due to hierarchy of authority, or the

inability to establish effective leadership within the coalition team. Individuals who are partially

dedicated to the coalition could increase the risk of conflict within the team. Such conflicts, if

left unresolved, can seriously hamper the coalition’s efforts to reach its goal. The coalition could

also be ineffective and unsustainable if there is a failure to establish effective communication

between the coalition team and the community or if the coalition has diminished capacity to

solicit funding. It is also essential for the coalition to have a shared mission and clearly defined

roles and expectations to improve collaboration and minimize conflict (Center for Community

Health and Development, n.d.).

Strategies to Optimize Collaboration

There are five key dimensions of effective coalitions. They are team leadership, mutual

performance monitoring, backup behavior, adaptability, and team orientation (Smith et al.,

2018). Effective leadership provides the coalition with the fundamentals, such as task

coordination and planning in addition to developing and motivating the team by maintaining a

positive and inclusive atmosphere. When coalition members have sufficient knowledge and

understanding of the roles and tasks of other team members of the coalition, they can function as

a backup in case of an overload or absence. Adaptability prepares the members of the coalition to

respond to sudden changes so that the functioning of the coalition is minimally impacted. Lastly,

to be team orientated, the members of the coalition must be willing to take others’ ideas and

perspectives into consideration and believe that the team’s goals are greater than the individual’s

(Smith et al., 2018).

Strategies to optimize collaboration and communication must address issues relating to

information sharing, personality factors, emotional intelligence, and organizational factors.

Issues related to information sharing can be resolved by ensuring that the whole team is trained

together. Issues can be mitigated by promoting inclusivity and democracy within the team.

Finally, organizational roadblocks can be minimized by providing the team with well-defined

protocols and procedures in addition to maintaining an organizational culture that is unbiased

and supportive (Smith et al., 2018).

Ethical Considerations

The Code of Ethics recommends that health professionals address ethical questions and

dilemmas for the benefit of population health. Ethical principles such as individual autonomy,

mutual respect, social justice, equity, accountability, transparency, trust, open communication,

and the development of leadership are important in dealing with challenges in health care (Laaser

et al., 2017). Laaser et al. published original research that describes in detail methods to draft an

ethical code for a public health initiative that could be beneficial to the coalition. The coalition

can use these methods as guidelines to address ethical practice within the group and in

connecting with the identified population.

On a micro level, the ethical issues associated with tackling an opioid crisis can be

observed when administering treatments to individuals who may not be competent enough to

make decisions for themselves. The decision-making capacity of individuals under the influence

of drugs or experiencing withdrawal is questionable. The coalition team will adhere to guidelines

outlined in The Code of Ethics. The basic principles of these guidelines revolve around respect

for persons, autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice. Respect for persons includes

participants’ right to know what changes they would undergo during treatment. Autonomy

involves respecting a patient’s opinions and desires when deciding the course of treatment

without coercing them or interfering with their decision. Beneficence helps prevent potential

harm and maximizes the potential benefits to patients by assessing the risks and benefits

associated with the treatment and rehabilitation. Non-maleficence involves minimizing or

eliminating any potential harm that could be caused to the patient by the treatment. Justice

represents equality and fairness, qualities that must be considered when administering life-saving

care (Laaser et al., 2017).

On a meso level, the coalition team must consider ethical issues that may arise while

administering treatment to opioid abuse victims such as prejudice based on gender identity, race,

economic status, political inclination, and religious beliefs (Anderson & McNair, 2018). An

ethically sound coalition will address equal access to care to all who need it without prejudice.

On the other hand, modern health systems are expected to proactively manage the health care

needs of large populations over multiple sites of care. This requires excellent coordination at all

levels of care delivery. Failure to establish a complex system that delivers optimal care to

patients is a meso level ethical violation of non-maleficence on behalf of the administrative team.

The coalition is ethically required to work with their counterparts and various levels of

professionals and care staff to decide oversight structure, execution responsibility, resource

distribution criteria, and relevant fiscal administration that will guarantee safe, effective, and

prompt care across the entire system (Jeon et al., 2018).

Collaboration, Diversity, and Inclusion

Inspired by the Joint Statement of Principles followed by the Coalition for Diversity and

Inclusion in Scholarly Communications, the coalition team will establish a culture of respect,

inclusion, and value in the team by removing barriers to participation and providing equal

opportunities to all team members. Maintaining an environment that promotes and respects

diversity among all team members through effective communication will enable the active

participation of all team members in major decision-making tasks involving the goal of

preventing opioid addiction (Coalition for Diversity and Inclusion in Scholarly Communications,

2020). Further, creating an inclusive workplace accounting for racial, religious, cultural, or

gender diversity, helps improve collaboration and develop a feeling of belonging in an

organization. This, in turn, results in improved staff satisfaction and an environment that is

conducive to the development of innovative intervention strategies to battle opioid addiction.

Additionally, developing a workplace culture that celebrates diversity and inclusiveness

promotes communality, which is fundamental for community engagement and improved patient

outcomes.

Community-level interventions can be implemented in the form of public education,

health care provider-patient interactions, and community-based medication disposal programs.

Educating communities on utilizing naloxone (which is used to treat emergency cases of opioid

overdose) and medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to reverse opioid overdose in a language

layman can easily understand is pivotal. It is also important that physicians and other health care

professionals alert patients about the risks associated with the overdose of prescription opioids.

Encouraging communities to install drop boxes and set up collection sites for the collective

disposal of unused opioids will also help prevent opioid addiction.

Literature Review to Address Opioid Addiction

Scholar-practitioners form an integral part of health care, especially when developing

innovations for better patient outcomes and greater stakeholder satisfaction. Researchers and

practitioners prefer distinct roles and identities, which creates a research-to-practice gap in

conversations about innovative approaches for improved patient outcomes. This means that

approaches or interventions from researchers are disseminated among practitioners without much

feedback about the real-world effects of the application of those approaches or interventions.

Scholar-practitioners bridge this gap by translating and interpreting new research and theory for

practitioners and highlighting practical problems to theorists and scholars. The coalition

members are highly skilled in their specific domains but will approach the opioid crisis in

Charleston as scholar-practitioners to ensure maximum efficiency in tackling the issue. The

following studies may be used by members of the coalition for information on evidence-based

strategies to tackle multiple aspects of an opioid crisis (Werner & Bleich, 2017).

Kerr’s (2019) study on public health responses to the opioid crisis in North America

broadly covers various aspects of the topic, including best practices for the prevention of opioid

addiction. These practices are based on thorough reviews of the latest scientific research and

expert opinions on helping addicts and those at a potential risk of addiction. It highlights the role

of naloxone in overdose reversal and how distributing naloxone across communities can have

lifesaving effects. It also highlights how MAT can improve the quality of life in addicts. The

study recommends screening for fentanyl to track its circulation within the local drug supply.

The coalition could use this information to modify evidence-based strategies that could be

employed to determine the most effective distribution system of naloxone for opioid abuse

victims in Charleston. Screening for synthetic opioids could be vital in the coalition’s efforts to

reduce and prevent overdose deaths through early detection of lethal contaminants in the drug

supply.

The study by Carroll et al. (2018) also contains evidence-based strategies covering

various aspects of dealing with an opioid crisis. The study recommends syringe services

programs, which are interventions that provide clean syringes in exchange for used ones. Patients

with opioid use disorder are encouraged to take up treatment and counseling when they enter

syringe services programs (Carroll et al., 2018). The coalition team and the community can

partner to develop a syringe services program for patients with opioid addiction and connect

them with treatment and counseling programs.

The studies offer insights on the benefits of restricting supply and reducing the demand

for prescription opiates, influencing prescribing practices, and decreasing the possibility of harm

as strategies that the coalition could use to guide their efforts in addressing the opioid addiction

crisis in Charleston. The coalition members must function as scholar-practitioners who seek out

knowledge and discuss current strategies that will lead to improved health care outcomes. A

scholar-practitioner develops this knowledge by continuously reflecting on the latest research

and engaging with team members in scholarly discussions on how health care professionals can

collaborate to drive evidence-based improvements in population health.

Conclusion

The increasing prevalence of opioid addiction is a global problem that calls for a

prevention intervention. Forming interprofessional coalition teams in every community can help

prevent opioid addiction. Optimizing interprofessional collaboration among these coalitions is

pivotal for preventing opioid addiction. The treatment of opioid use disorder is challenging

because of factors such as the comorbidity of other psychiatric illnesses and dependence on

opioid painkillers. The treatment of opioid use disorder requires further research. Coalition teams

must consider an ethical code of conduct when working toward implementing interventions to

prevent opioid addiction. Effective communication, the elimination of barriers by promoting

diversity in teams, and effective leadership are some best practices for interprofessional

collaboration that will help teams. Literature reviews demonstrate evidence-based practices such

as educating communities, physicians, and health care providers on opioid addiction treatment,

improving access to MAT, and revising insurance policies on access to drugs recommended by

the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The goal of preventing opioid addiction can be achieved

by collective emphasis on prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of patients with opioid use

disorder and those who are at a potential risk for addiction.

Write an 8 page evaluation of key aspects of a population-based health concern, including your selection of members to form an interprofessional, collaborative coalition to achieve the stated goal.

Resolving population health concerns requires the combined efforts of numerous agencies and individuals to address the Triple Aim of improving the patient experience, improving the health of populations, and reducing costs. This requires an interprofessional and collaborative effort to address the complex factors at the individual, organizational, community, and policy levels associated with the multiple factors affecting the health and well-being of our communities (Graffunder, Sakurada, & Nordisk, 2016).

As a scholar-practitioner in the field, you may be expected to develop and lead a diverse team of health care professionals, civic leaders, community stakeholders, constituents, community members, other interested parties, and city, state, and government agencies in addressing a wide range of issues affecting the health of diverse groups.

This assessment provides an opportunity for you to apply your leadership skills to form a collaborative, interprofessional coalition to address a population-based health concern from a nursing, public health, or health administration perspective.
