Downtown Eastside Connections Clinic
A drop-in treatment centre for individuals struggling with illicit drug addiction and who have difficulty accessing mainstream services. Physicians and pharmacists provide opioid replacement therapy, with clients assessed and receiving treatment within hours of check-in; also provide medication for other conditions that are prevalent in this population, such as HIV, hepatitis C, and psychiatric illnesses. Patients go to the clinic daily for treatment and after an average of three months, once they are stabilized, will be connected to follow-up care through other longer-term health services. Hours are 8:30 am to 5:30 pm daily; no appointment required.
