AN INNOVATIVE project has put nurses at the forefront of a fight to tackle addiction in Argyll and Bute.
The specialist team of nurses is working in partnership with a number of other experts to combat the problem of drugs in the area. In particular, there is growing concern about the prevalence of so-called party drugs and legal highs, which have now been banned.
NHS Highland employs nurses to work in a variety of roles, including a new dedicated Argyll and Bute Addiction Team (ABAT).
