Project description: 

Peninsula Health (Victoria) commissioned NCETA to develop a manual of resources to assist specialist alcohol and other drug (AOD) and non-specialist clinicians to better identify, assess and intervene with older people who are, or who are at risk of, experiencing AOD related harm. The manual will cater for clinicians across the spectrum of primary health care, general health and welfare services and specialist AOD agencies.
