We had the opportunity to have an extremely valuable experience in interviewing a network of people from various areas who have the lived experience of the war on drugs.  The focus is hearing how they would like to be treated when presenting to the emergency department.  Their lived experience will cause any health provider to reflect on their practice and make simple changes to make everyone&apos;s experience of care better!Support the show (https://nursem.org/donate/)
