Abstract

Despite WHO recommendations, the percentage of persons treated for Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) is still low. The ever-increasing burden of alcohol intoxication cases on emergency services underscores the necessity for innovative approaches to treat individuals with AUD and to improve harm reduction strategies. Bars are often frequented by individuals with AUD who are not under observation by medical or social services. Recognizing that understanding the social contexts surrounding alcohol consumption is essential for harm reduction, this study examined the often overlooked yet important role of bartenders in implementing informal harm reduction strategies.
