• Identify how these perceptions and beliefs affect behaviour and interactions with patients and clients
• Safely challenge personally held stereotypes using evidence
• Develop empathy for people who use drugs by sharing lived experiences
• Identify strategies to reshape patient and client interactions into more positive therapeutic relationships..
