Harm reduction is an evidence-based, practical approach to reducing the negative personal and public health consequences of drug use. However, staff in healthcare settings often struggle to openly discuss drug use with patients. The Introduction to Harm Reduction in Healthcare Video Series demonstrates practical strategies to support the health of people who use drugs. This video presents an approach to identifying and supporting people going through withdrawal with your waiting room.
Additional Takeaways:
-Prepare your staff to recognize the basic signs of withdrawal and provide them with basic techniques to support patients
-Remember that while a patient is actively experiencing opioid withdrawal symptoms they have limited ability to concentrate, follow directions, or modulate emotional reactions
A successful interaction with the patient means attending to basic physical and relational needs such as offering a glass of water, and acknowledging that the person looks uncomfortable
