Narcan (Naloxone) is a medication that reverses an overdose by blocking heroin or other opioids in the brain for 30 to 90 minutes. The training will teach you:
-why naloxone works to reverse an overdose
-what to do when an overdose is suspected
-how and when to administer the medication.
Each individual will receive training for administering naloxone, and receive a FREE Narcan kit that will be available for pick-up at the Library.
