@YWCA_Hamilton has a model to share with any shelter interested. We also need funding to keep this space open for women and gender diverse people. thespec.com/news/hamilton-…
Harm reduction is the brilliance of people who use drugs - it saves lives, treats people with dignity, and brings so much joy and creativity and love to our community. Happy harm reduction month y'all! Keep up the good fight 💜
And finally, check out the @YWCA_Hamilton Safer Drug Use Space open house ! This is a space for women and non-binary people deprived of housing to safely use drugs with trained overdose responders present. It is operated in partnership with the YWCA, HAMSMaRT, and @keepingsix !
Come hear @Marcie58632320 again alongside our safer supply prescribers @RobinLennox and @healthinthehmmr (+ more!) give @HamiltonFamMed rounds on harm reduction May 24

I’ll take this one step further. People who use street-based opioids (mostly fentanyl) need and deserve MUCH more aggressive pain control due to 1. Tolerance 2. Hyperalgesia 3. Trauma and fear If they are opioid tolerant and opioid pain control seems reasonable, PLEASE DO SO
Folks who use drugs should not be treated for pain/cannot be treated for pain (even during procedures)

Strongly agree with these recommendations but want to draw special attention to having SCHEDULED doses of short-acting opioid to address withdrawal. PRN dosing alone is usually insufficient and not the correct modality.
