Welcome to the Spero Clinical Insights Podcast series, where we cover the latest topics in the world of mental health and substance use disorder, we are excited to share with you Episode 13 available now: “What Harm Reductions Means to Us”.
In this episode we take a deep dive into Harm reduction practices. John Biery, Spero Health Nurse Practitioner specializing in the treatment of substance use disorders, is the special guest. The discussion focuses on what harm reduction is and what it is not. We explore how harm reduction improves patient engagement in care, has better outcomes and reduces patient risk. We take a look at barriers that exist when implementing harm reduction strategies and ways to overcome these. The discussion goes in depth how an integrated care team can work together to utilize these principles to Save Lives, Instill Hope and Restore Relationships.
