Register for our new National Services Directory!
New National Directory of Drug and Alcohol Services Launching Soon!
Drugs.ie will shortly house a new National Directory of Drug and Alcohol Services. The new directory will replace our existing service directory.
Inclusion in the directory is though a self-registration process. Services will need to use their email address to register, and when they have done so, they will receive a unique username and password. This username and password will allow a service to access their details in the directory at anytime, in order to update, edit or review the information. Once the new directory goes live, services will also have access to upload videos, referral / application forms, newsletters etc, when and if needed.
Click here to start the registration process.
Registration will require you to fill in a few initial questions in relation to your service. When you have completed this stage, you will then receive an email with your username and password, and instructions on how to complete the full registration process.
Once registered, you can access and update your services information at any time.
Our hope is that all addiction and support services (community, voluntary & statutory) in Ireland will register and manage their information on an on-going basis. Services will also be able to upload referral forms, photos, videos etc. This information will be beneficial to potential service user and the service provider. This information will assist in making appropriate referrals from individuals and services.
Multiple entries are possible for services with various locations or types of service.
We want to give each agency, each project, each clinic and residential facility its own dedicated area on http://www.drugs.ie This .will be a national directory but one that it locally managed and locally owned.
The benefits we hope the new directory will bring to all users:
- you will be accessing a directory that is up to date and accurate because agencies themselves will be supplying information on their services
- help in guiding you to the most appropriate services based on your needs
- enabling you to make informed decisions about treatment and rehabilitation
- all agencies complete the same questionnaire so all the information is presented to you in a consistent way
The benefits to services providers in exchange for a little bit of your time:
- you can log in easily and quickly any time to edit any of your information
- you can upload images, documents and videos to complement your services descriptions
- you can search within familiar service catchment areas – HSE boundaries and Drug Task Force boundaries
- you can shortlist services and pull together tailor-made and high-quality PDF directories for printing should you need to
- you can become familiar with the difference services operating in your area through the new map search function
- statistics via your profile page will let you know how complete your registration is and how many people have visited your service pages
- a completely free online presence at the drugs.ie site
