Parkland Institute - November 06, 2025 - Jennifer Jackson
EXCERPT: "This study gauges how the drug poisoning crisis is impacting frontline health care workers, their personal wellbeing, and their ability to provide care.
Previous studies have explored the experiences of doctors and nurses dealing with the opioid drug crisis, but there has been limited research into the experiences of other health care professionals. Our study focuses on Alberta health care workers who are part of the Health Sciences Association of Alberta (HSAA).
In this study we asked the following questions:
- What has been the personal impact of the drug poisoning crisis for health care professionals in Alberta in HSAA?
- How has the workload and nature of work changed for HSAA members because of the drug poisoning crisis?
- What workplace supports do HSAA members need to continue working during the drug poisoning crisis? . . . . ."
