Casa de Salud has emerged as an important access point for evidence-based harm reduction and innovative drug addiction services in Bernalillo County—at a time when there is a growing demand for harm reduction services. The clinic’s expertise in delivering culturally competent care is especially important in this setting, as clients who enter the clinic for harm reduction services come from very diverse ethnic, racial, socioeconomic, geographic, and family backgrounds.
Casa de Salud provides same-week access to medication, for clients making a decision to stop using opiates, and those clients who drop off for various reasons can return without judgment when ready to re-enter recovery.
In 2019, several thousand needle exchange visits were conducted, with over 100,000 syringes exchanged per month. Casa de Salud has harm reduction service hours Monday through Friday. Casa de Salud is a community leader in holistic/complementary treatments that reflect our patients’ cultural traditions. The clinic interweaves natural and conventional medicines to meet the physical and spiritual health needs of patients in a welcoming, just, creative, and inclusive environment.
