This introductory resource was developed to assist alcohol and drug services to create partnerships with their clients to improve the safety and quality of their treatment and care.
Whilst targeted toward Queensland public health services, the toolkit is relevant for other AOD service contexts. It should be used in conjunction with The National Safety and Quality Health Service Standards, Standard 2: "Partnering with consumers".
