The commissioned service will be a low-threshold drug and alcohol service based on an assertive outreach model that works in partnership with mainstream statutory and third-sector organisations.
The service will operate with a mix-skilled staff team to identify, respond and engage with individuals as close to the crisis point as possible. It will provide a fast, short, and focused response to Near-Fatal Overdose (NFO) in 24/48 hours, delivering harm reduction intervention, including Injecting Equipment Provision (IEP), Naloxone kit, Overdose Awareness and links with mainstream services, statutory and third-sector organisations.
