Harm Reduction. Harm Reduction comprises providing information, advice and guidance to ensure safer use of substances including alcohol and to support service users to keep safe and well. The principles of harm reduction should be integral to the work of all staff within the service, but also includes elements such as a needle exchange, blood borne virus (BBV) interventions and supporting ‘at risk’ service users to access Tuberculosis (TB) screening and treatment services where required harmful and hazardous drinking levels. The harm reduction element of the Service will be open access as some users who may only be engaged with harm reduction. It is important for the Service to still challenge all substance misuse with presenting service users and ensure that support towards recovery is presented as an option to all. Where service users express a wish to engage or re-engage with structured treatment for drug and /or alcohol dependency, this will involve helping to set longer recovery goals. This open access element of the service can often be a vital source of intelligence of emerging trends in substance misuse and associated xxxxx and should be open to sharing non patient identifiable information with partners when the aim is to reduce the harm caused by all substance misuse. Harm reduction information advice and guidance includes (but is not limited to): ● Dietary advice, reducing suicide risk, poly drug use, and interaction with prescribed medication, and home safety such as cooking, heating, fire risk, abuse and exploitation. For more information see Working with Change Resistant Drinkers, Alcohol Concern (2014) ● Substance misuse and associated xxxxx. ● Performance and Image Enhancing Drugs (e.g. illicit use of steroids and growth hormones). ● Safer injecting, reducing frequency of injecting and reducing initiation of others into injecting. ● Information on primary health care services including local GPs, pharmacies, related services and deliver important physical, psychological and sexual health messages to those not engaged in primary health care services. ● Brief advice for smoking and referral to appropriate specialist services. ● Develop effective partnership work with community based healthcare services, including respiratory and TB services, infectious diseases, and gastroenterology.
Harm Reduction. An approach to substance use that incorporates a spectrum of strategies including safer use, managed use, abstinence, meeting people who use drugs “where they’re at,” and addressing conditions of use along with the use itself (National Harm Reduction Coalition, 2021). A harm reduction approach is not appropriate within every program or service offering, but it is vital to ensure that harm reduction services are widely accessible within the community and to incorporate various harm reduction tools within as many programs as possible.
Harm Reduction. Harm Reductions models use a variety of strategies to reduce the harmful consequences associated with substance misuse. Harm reduction strategies seek to reduce morbidity and mortality associated with substance misuse for those for whom abstinence is not an immediate and/or feasible goal.
