February 11, 2021The effects of alcohol misuse in Northern Ireland have been estimated to cost up to £900 million annually, with almost £250 million being attributed to the health and social care sector. As a result, the number of hospital admissions for alcohol-related harm has been increasing steadily. One example of alcoholrelated harm is alcohol-related brain damage (ARBD). This report aims to highlight the burden this condition is placing on our health and social care services, and also to call for better provision of services for this group of patients.
