Inchicore Bluebell community addiction team strategic planning document 2014-2017.
The Inchicore Community Drug Team was established in 1999 and the Bluebell Addiction Advisory Group in 2004. In 2011 both projects merged to form the Inchicore Bluebell Community Addiction Team. During the intervening years the project has grown, developed and expanded its services.
The service is now well established in both communities, providing a key community response to local addiction problems.
Our research for this strategic plan involved consultation with all the major stakeholders in the service. Funding cutbacks in recent times, necessitated the use of in-house resources to conduct the consultation. Staff rose to the challenge and gathered very interesting results during the course of their interviews.
Polydrug use continues to be a major issue for service users. The growing problems of alcohol and herbal cannabis use, along with an alarming rise in mental health issues are among those issues identified. This plan reflects the needs of service users and identifies our key strategic goals seek to address those needs. We will strive to meet the challenges identified in this report and we will endeavour to stay focused on providing direct service provision, responding to the changing addiction problems in Inchicore and Bluebell

Inchicore Bluebell Community Addiction Team annual review 2017.
IBCAT is an organisation that provides support to Drug and Alcohol Users, their Family and Carers.
Our project provides an holistic service for someone who is struggling with addiction. When they access the service initially they meet with a member of staff who will carry out an initial assessment with the client. After this the client will be assigned a keyworker, a more comprehensive assessment will take place and a care plan put in place. Some clients are only ready to access the drop in and enjoy that space where they are safe, comfortable and not judged. Others are ready to begin work on their addiction with our counsellors. All the while they are supported by their keyworker around the many issues that can come with addiction, mental and physical health, housing, legal issues, family relationships etc

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
