supervised consumption sites

Supervised consumption sites are designated facilities where individuals can use previously obtained drugs under the supervision of trained staff. These sites aim to reduce health risks, such as overdose and infections, by providing a safe environment, immediate medical assistance if needed, and access to health and social services. They also help connect users with treatment options if desired. The goal is to promote health, safety, and community well-being while addressing the impacts of drug use through a compassionate, harm-reduction approach.
