L’objectif
Identify key barriers and facilitators to participant engagement with the hydromorphone tablet program.
Constatations/points à retenir
Safe supply programs can be a feasible public health intervention to address the overdose crisis. Although barriers exist, these can be addressed via considerations of how the program is delivered. The authors noted that overall, the program was very well received among program participants. Taking into account high enrolment numbers and long waitlists, they expressed the need for scale-up of safe supply programs.
