East Shore Health Hosting Community Narcan Training

From ESDHD: Narcan (Naloxone) quickly reverses the deadly effects of a narcotic overdose. It can easily be administered by anyone with a simple auto-injector or nasal spray. In Connecticut, you don’t need approval from a doctor to administer Narcan. If you give Narcan to someone you are protected from prosecution under the state’s Good Samaritan laws. If you know someone in danger of an opioid overdose, come to this presentation to learn how to help save a life. Narcan will be available so bring your insurance card.

Safe medication disposal will also be promoted and demonstrated.
