S3 Ep1: Considerations for alcohol withdrawal management

Alcohol withdrawal management is an important part of the continuum of care for alcohol use disorder. While some individuals at low risk of complications can safely undergo alcohol withdrawal at home, others may require inpatient withdrawal management services to prevent life-threatening complications. In this episode of Addiction Practice Pod, Dr. Marcus Greatheart and David P. Ball talk with nurse specialist Avee Khela about alcohol withdrawal management pathways, and we hear from Sandra Stewart on how to provide compassionate, non-judgemental care to individuals with alcohol use disorder.
