Managing complex cases
Warning
Some people will be experiencing such harm and impact from cocaine use that they are unable to undertake this work and may have poor engagement with addiction services. These people should be appropriately RAG and CRAFT risk assessed. They may require assertive outreach, crisis or stabilisation residential care where available, or an inpatient admission if they have mental health complexity. People experiencing harm from primary cocaine or poly drug use could be discussed in supervision and then possibly at MDT depending on the level of complexity and harm.
There are a range of residential services that support individuals at varying stages of their recovery. Resource and availability may be different in each health board area.
