Closing supervised consumption sites did not save lives.
In @TheTorontoSun op-ed, RNAO CEO Dr. @DorisGrinspun says #HarmReduction remains a critical part of responding to the #ToxicDrugCrisis & is complementary to treatment.
"Ontario should restore supervised consumption services as part of a comprehensive, accountable and compassionate system of care. Nurses understand this from daily practice: people must survive long enough to reach treatment, benefit from recovery services and rebuild their lives."

After graduating with distinction from Laurentian University and passing her NCLEX exam, Jordan Heffern began working as a hospital nurse in spring 2023.
A year later she died by suicide.
Following #WorldSuicidePreventionDay, researchers at Laurentian University released new findings on the mental health challenges facing nurses.
RNAO member & #NP Dr. @robertaheale, who co-led the study, says working conditions for new nurses are worsening. She says not everyone is able to recognize when they are in trouble.

Following the 2025 safe consumption site closures in Toronto, between April/25-Jan/26 there was an 82% increase in suspected overdose calls received by Toronto EMS. So Ontario - what do you want your ERs doing that could be done elsewhere?
