Nalaxone/Opioid Overdose Prevention Training
It's important to recognize the signs of opioid overdose and how to effectively administer the opioid reversal drug Naloxone (NARCAN) in the event that a student or community member is in need of help. This free training workshop is vital to support our community members, healthcare professionals, educators, and first responders.
This workshop will introduce a comprehensive training of administering NARCAN to reverse the effects of opioid overdose.
