The wider aspects of Addictions involve the Faculty in a broad
dialogue with Government departments, legislators, voluntary sector
bodies and the media, about issues as diverse as licensing and
availability of drugs and alcohol, or the diversion of drug-related
offenders from prisons. The Faculty is also committed to education
and training, setting clearly defined standards for future
addiction specialists, influencing the training of medical students
and other doctors. The aim is to promote skilled high-quality care
for our patients, and to improve their resources within the
healthcare system.
