Safer injecting and needle exchange
Kevin Flemen runs KFx, a drugs information and training business and has been
delivering safer injecting and needle exchange training since the mid-nineties.
He has worked with agencies across the UK and this two-day safer injecting
course is held in high regard by participants. Needle exchange and advice
around safer injecting remains an essential skill set for drugs workers – not only
can effective needle exchange reduce harm in the short term, but well
delivered interventions can provide an essential route into treatment and long
term change. This two day course looks at key issues in safer injecting and
needle exchange including theory, paraphernalia, process, technique, sites and
anatomy and complications. This course is essential for all workers who have
contact with injectors, especially those working in Needle Exchange settings. It
is mapped to DANOS and includes handouts and resources.
Place: £220 + vat including lunch and refreshments
