SURKit: Substance Use Response Kit
SURKit is a best practice substance use response toolkit that brings together the resources - both physical and non-physical - needed by Emergency Department staff to deliver quality care to patients presenting with substance use disorders
SURKit is part of VCH and PHC's regional strategy to help reduce drug toxicity deaths
SURKit will be implemented across all VCH/PHC emergency departments to ensure more uniform substance use care, focusing on a non-stigmatizing approach to harm reduction, substance use stabilization, treatment initiation and transition of care.
