AFTER a two-year break, the Anex Bulletin has been re-launched as a publication for workers in Australia's needle and syringe programs.
It is being published in an electronic format -- with the aim of reaching more NSP workers across Australia.
The Anex Bulletin explores the NSP front-line to reinforce why this important work is so crucial to saving lives and supporting the community.
It is produced by Penington Institute and funded by the Federal Department of Health. The Anex Bulletin can be downloaded at www.penington.org.au/anex-bulletin/
Community pharmacies are a critical component of NSP service delivery, accounting for about 15 per cent of syringes used for injecting drugs.
They are ideally placed to assist in the distribution of sterile injecting equipment, supported by the professional services available from pharmacists.
