Baystate Health has full-time job openings for Research Assistants to partner with the Franklin, Hampshire, and Hampden County Sheriff’s Office to study opioid use disorder treatment for incarcerated patients.
This is part of a five-year study funded by the National Institutes of Health. The goal of the project is to evaluate provision of medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) in houses of correction across Massachusetts in an effort to decrease opioid use disorder and opioid overdose risks across the state.
The Research Assistants (RAs), under the supervision of the Project Director, will assist with data collection and entry focused on MOUD initiation and adherence in Houses of Correction (HOCs) in Western Massachusetts. RAs will work daily at one of three HOCs in Franklin, Hampshire, and Hampden Counties.
