Maximising Independence
Over recent years, Glasgow City HSCP has been continually adapting the way we support people so that we can meet their needs in ways that maintain their independence. Now, we're looking to build even further on this approach.

SDCF - Service user information
Safer drug consumption facilities (SDCFs) are supervised healthcare settings where you can consume your own drugs, obtained elsewhere, under the supervision of trained health and social care professionals, in clean, hygienic and safe environments reducing the risk of overdose.
You will receive a compassionate service which focuses on reducing the harms associated with injecting drug use and will be given the opportunity, if desired, to access other support services.
