Bankstown Drug Health Services
Service Description
This program provides Methadone, Buprenorphine or Suboxone stabilisation treatment for people 18 years and older, who are dependent on prescribed or illicit Opioids. Case management is provided to ensure patients have access to a range of interventions for their drug dependence. Assistance in addressing associated social problems such as employment or housing is provided if needed. Case managers also assist with coordination of care when more than one service is involved. Patients, once stable, are supported to transfer into community dosing facilities that meet their lifestyle needs.
