Naloxone
Naloxone training prepares participants to recognize and respond to opioid overdoses quickly and safely. The course explains how opioids affect the brain and breathing, how to identify overdose symptoms, and why rapid action is critical. Participants learn a clear five-step response: stimulate the person, call 911, administer intranasal naloxone, provide rescue breathing if needed, and offer ongoing care until help arrives. The training emphasizes safety, legal protections, and when to administer additional doses. By the end, participants are equipped with practical, lifesaving skills to reverse an opioid overdose and support recovery.
