Within the realm of our mission, this partnership provided an
outstanding golf experience to specifically benefit ONSF clinical research,
medical education and community outreach programs all of which substantially
improve patient treatment and care while enhancing healthy, active living.
Recently, ONSF announced a major research initiative Unraveling the Opioid
Epidemic in Post-Surgical Patients
. Utilizing its skills, ONSF will work
diligently to resolve this significant problem that is affecting a very sizable
group of individuals.
