SURKit is part of VCH and PHC's regional strategy to help reduce drug toxicity deaths
SURKit will be implemented across all VCH/PHC emergency departments to ensure more uniform substance use care, focusing on a non-stigmatizing approach to harm reduction, substance use stabilization, treatment initiation and transition of care.
