A presentation by Zak Matieschyn\, NP(F) \nTuesday\, Feb 15th at 7 pm at The Muriel Griffiths Room of The Bailey Theatre \nDrug use is common in all societies and has been as far back as records exist. The scene is different now\, though. We have a poisoned drug supply. People who normally wouldn’t have a problem with drug use are dying because of poisoned drugs. For those with an addiction\, human connection makes all the difference. \nOur speaker\, Zak Matieschyn\, is a Nurse Practitioner who has completed an Addiction Fellowship with the BC Centre for Substance Use. He currently maintains an addiction practice in Nelson and is the Acting Executive Director of the Nursing Policy Secretariat in the BC Ministry of Health. Zak is committed to making life better for people who use drugs and will bring us his practical perspective to how we can support them\, from his many years in research and practice. Zak will be joined by a number of people with lived experience of substance use. \nFree presentation but you must register in advance through Eventbrite at this link  https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/addiction-the-poisoned-drug-supplywhat-we-need-to-know-how-we-can-help-tickets-259849836857. \nMasks & Proof of Vaccination Required. \nRespect and Connect: A Better Community for Us All is an educational initiative that addresses issues such as homelessness\, mental illness and substance use\, aiming to provide insight and tools to help us better interact with everyone in our community.
