Sorry, I added to my post while you were writing.

I have an idea to deal with the ER visits which may sound cold hearted.
When they show up give them a bottle of hydrogen peroxide, some swabs, gauze, medical tape and send them on their merry way. How would you feel about being stuck in the waiting room because some junkie is getting an abscess dug out because he/she has been muscling instead of using the needle as it was intended.

I have no pity at all for those who choose to do this to themselves.

I don't speak from ignorance. I have had my own habits in the past to deal with. But my thoughts on needles is that they are to be operated by qualified personnel, these folks are not.
