Abstract

Between 3 and 6% of the population in England are dependent on alcohol. However, only 5.6% access treatment per annum. A significant proportion of patients presenting with alcohol dependence do so via a GP or hospital emergency aepariment (ED). It is therefore important to consider presentation within these settings as an opportunity for alcohol specific treatment.
