Ease up on the drink

Barbara Bruchert from Counties Manukau Health

Over the festive season and holidays, we see an increase in alcohol-related accidents and emergencies. Many of these accidents and injuries can be avoided by easing up on the drink.

We want to see you celebrating, enjoying the summer holidays and spending quality time with your loved ones and not stuck in ED or hospital because of an alcohol-related injury or medical issue.

Our ED doctors, St John’s paramedics and Counties Manukau police come face-to-face with the consequences of harmful drinking on a daily basis. They urge you to take care of yourself and your whaanau over the festive season and one way you can do that is to ease up on the drink vimeo.com...

If you are concerned about your drinking, or the drinking of a loved-one, help is available. Visit www.alcohol.org.nz... to find out more, or call 1737 to speak to a trained counsellor.
