Injection drug use is risky because the potential for injecting bloodborne pathogens such as HIV and HBV exists when needles are shared. The nurse can educate IV drug users about sharing equipment by:
 
  1. Telling clients to throw away their equipment after one use
  2. Educating the client on using full-strength bleach on their drug paraphernalia for 30 seconds
  3. Reporting illegal activities to the authorities and confiscating the needles and sy-ringes
  4. Giving out needles and syringes to whoever wants them
