Bathroom Etiquette: Injecting at the Exchange Part 2 - Harm Reduction Coalition
I am really impressed with what these (unnamed) programs are doing to make injecting in their bathrooms safer. Obviously, it is only a clumsy work around for actual legal supervised injection, but still great harm reduction. When I volunteered at an agency that had a bathroom, there was so much fear about the agency being shut down that they put blue filter on the light in the bathroom, thereby making it riskier for people to inject. We also had no policy to check on people for the purpose of administering narcan.
So, yes, I am going to post links to every single Harm Reduction Coalition podcast as it comes out. Because they’re all amazing.
