L’objectif
We describe and compare access to and uptake of co-located and external services among clients accessing harm reduction-embedded (HR-embedded) and community health center-embedded (CHC-embedded) SCS models.
Constatations/points à retenir
Among 469 SCS clients, 305 (65.0%) primarily used HR-embedded SCS and 164 (35.0%) primarily used CHC-embedded SCS. Compared to clients accessing CHC-embedded SCS, clients accessing HR-embedded SCS were somewhat younger, more likely to report fentanyl as their primary injected drug, and visited SCS more often. HR-embedded SCS clients were more likely to access harm reduction services onsite compared to CHC-embedded SCS clients, while CHC-embedded SCS clients were more likely to access non-harm reduction services onsite. For external services, HR-embedded SCS clients were more likely to receive a referral but less likely to report referral uptake.
