‘We have failed in the past because we have not met people in their own setting. We try to recreate their setting and think they would simply run after us,” said Minister of Health, Dr Leslie Ramsammy, as he addressed the opening of a substance abuse training workshop at the Ocean View International Hotel yesterday.The workshop, which will continue today, is spearheaded by the Phoenix Recovery Project and is being facilitated by Dr Marcus Day, of the Caribbean Drug and Alcohol Research Institute. It is intended to focus on minimising the social and health consequences of persons suffering from substance abuse disorders.According to Minister Ramsammy,Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping, people are on the streets for many reasons, and at one time, they were simply painted with the same brush. In essence, he noted that it was assumed that all people living on the streets were there because of economic problems. The other extreme, he said, was the assumption that street dwellers are mentally ill.“What has happened now is that it’s the subject of the day…so when you are dealing with substance abuse suddenly everybody on the streets is there because of substance abuse.”Minister Ramsammy asserted that often is the case that the various reasons drive each other, thus compounding the problems faced by street dwellers. He stressed too that street dwelling is not always brought on by substance abuse.“We must not think that it is a straight line; that it starts with substance abuse then leads to mental illnesses then economic impoverisation and leads to people on the streets. That is a nice story, of course,Custom New York Knicks Jerseys, but it doesn’t always work that way.”In fact, Minister Ramsammy explained that although this situation is a complex one throughout the developing world, very little has been spent and invested on dealing with such social and health issues.? He revealed that very little or small amounts of persons have been trained in this regard, even as he ascertained that in the formal training programme “we have never taken into consideration that there are people who need our help, who need care because of substance abuse, because of mental illnesses and so. We need to change that paradigm. There is need for a robust paradigm shift in Guyana, in the Caribbean, in the developing countries and globally.”Dr Ramsammy noted that unlike for persons with diabetes and other more formal illnesses, the health sector has not really developed strong institutional, intervention programmes for persons suffering from substance abuse.“Therein lies the problem, because if you do not have strong programmes even within your institutions, then how do you have programmes to deal with people outside your institution.”He said that measures are apace to take a different approach even as there is caution to ensure that the mistakes of the past are not repeated.? As part of the arrangement, he said, is the need to improve on institutional arrangements for people with mental illnesses and substance abuse problems.“When I speak about institutional arrangements I am not speaking about hospitals alone or psychiatric institutions alone, I am also talking about places where we provide certain services like our convalescent homes… where people are, like the Palms and Non-Governmental operated homes…These are the institutional arrangements that we need to strengthen,” the Minister noted.There is also need, he said,Wholesale NHL Jerseys, to ensure that outreach programmes are developed and strengthened even reaching to the target persons on the streets or wherever they can be found.With its primary intention to decrease drug demand and abuse in Guyana one addict at a time, the Phoenix Recovery Project has been making remarkable strides over the past few years.
