Our Alcohol Care Team provide specialist expertise and care for alcohol dependent patients, and those presenting with acute intoxication or other alcohol-related complications, such as alcohol withdrawal seizures or Delirium Tremens, when attending our Emergency Department (ED) or admitted as an inpatient.
Our service also provides psychosocial interventions and motivational interviewing. We liaise with other hospitals and community services to provide patients with support and care pathways that aim to improve the likelihood of them remaining alcohol free.
The team also provide outpatient clinic follow up for relapse prevention medications and ongoing support.
