Opioid management (Narcotics)

Narcotics can be dangerous if not managed with care. Although narcotics can be necessary in the early stages of recovery from a serious injury, with long term use narcotics can hamper recovery.

The Canadian Opioid Guideline came into effect May 2010. WCB-Alberta has updated relevant documents to be consistent with the recommendations of the new guideline.
