Injecting Advice

Scenario Generator

One of the things I’ve always wanted to have access to is some way of generating example scenrios to help when talking to new workers/peers or for helping experianced workers/peers hone their knowledge. As with all things the best solution to not having a tool is to build it yourself. Please feel free to use this for training, worker discussions etc. If you find it useful please consider buying me a coffee.

You can also customise the settings to make sections more or less likely to appear, eg the “drug specific considerations” section is set to 5% by default, this section gives things to think about based on the drug used, increase it to have this section appear more often.

Section settings You can adjust how often each section appears ⌄

Press Generate scenario to create your first scenario.

What referrals or follow-up might be helpful?
What strengths could you build on?

If you only had one minute, what is the single most important message you would give?
