L’objectif

Alcohol and other drug (AOD) workers from a variety of service settings are now frequently required to respond to methamphetamine users who are experiencing the harmful effects of methamphetamine, going through withdrawal or seeking methamphetamine-specific treatment. The Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing recognises that clear and up-to-date information is required by all AOD workers, not just those with a clinical or professional background.
