The Addiction Service supports the provision of an integrated range of preventative, therapeutic, and rehabilitation services to meet the diverse health and social care needs of our service users in an accountable, accessible and equitable manner.
The Addiction Service promotes a drug-free lifestyle by providing prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and aftercare programmes to minimise the harmful effects of substance misuse and prevent the spread of HIV / Hepatitis and other infections.
Referral and access to the Addiction Service is through Self Referral, Family Members, GPs, Drop-in Centres, Needle Exchange, Treatment Centres, Satellite Clinics, Community Support Groups, and through the Garda Arrest Referral System.
Needle Exchange services for under 16yrs require parental consent.
Needle exchange is a confidential service for injecting drug users, where they are able to get sterile injecting equipment and dispose safely of used injecting equipment
Contact the Treatment Centres / Satellite Clinic or any Outreach Worker at any Clinic or Needle Exchange in your area to arrange your first visit.
