Alcohol teaching sessions: The use of Vodka in the management of acute alcoholic withdrawal

April 1, 2021

Our alcohol care team have put together education teaching session videos. Be sure to check out this clip featuring Arlene Copland, Nurse Consultant talking about using vodka to prevent the onset of acute alcohol withdrawal in patients who are excessive drinkers.

Do you have any patients who would benefit from virtual Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) support? AA provides invaluable support for people who are currently struggling with their drinking, or are recently abstaining from alcohol, so it is very exciting that we now have the opportunity to introduce AA to people before they are discharged. If you know of someone who may benefit from this, please contact the alcohol care team on ext. 5074.
