We Are With You have created a suite of new resources for colleagues to share with clients and partners to raise awareness of contaminated drugs. This includes:
- A poster about contaminated drugs.
- A business card with overdose signs and symptoms.
- A leaflet about contaminated drugs.
- An easy read Z card about contaminated drugs.
- An easy-read Z card which provides guidance on how to use self-test drug strips.
These new resources compliment the new self-test drug strip ‘how to’ video and wider operational actions which are being delivered to help protect clients and communities from the harms associated with contaminated drugs.
Information is also available on the website about contaminated drugs and the self-test drug kits.
