To reduce stigma for people who use drugs, diverse approaches and principles can be operationalized in practice to create non-judgemental, destigmatized care. Although we will look at how these approaches will promote destigmatizing care when applied to those who use substances, these principles can really be applied to everyone you are caring for, regardless of the persons' presentation or care needs.
This module includes informative books, ebooks, journals, databases, videos, and more to assist you with learning and understanding more about the benefits of adopting destigmatizing care approaches into practice.
