  2. Formulate and evaluate patient-centred treatment plans for initiating and maintaining OAT, considering best practices and interdisciplinary inputs while addressing potential challenges and solutions. 
  3. Identify gaps in the continuity of care during transitions between community, correctional, or acute care settings and formulate strategies to enhance care continuity, thereby reducing the risk of relapse.
