Home-based Alcohol Withdrawal Management Program

Provided by Vancouver Coastal Health

Provides support in the management of alcohol withdrawal process from clients own residence.
The Home-based Alcohol Withdrawal Management (HBAWM) program offers individuals (aged 19+) with a diagnosis of Alcohol Use Disorder, and who are at low risk for related medical complications, support in the management of their alcohol withdrawal process from their own residence. Clients will require a support person who is available to remain with them throughout the course of their withdrawal.

The goals of the HBAWM team are to provide safe withdrawal from alcohol, utilizing processes which help to protect client dignity and links clients to ongoing treatment and support. Clients will meet with clinicians at the Squamish MHSU to develop a suitable treatment plan and obtain support over the course of their withdrawal management. Regular monitoring and assessment will be provided by an experienced addiction nurse throughout the withdrawal process. This team consists of 1 physician and 1 addiction nurse.
