Opioid Overdose Response Training Through NaloxoKit Partnership
Opioid overdose response training is one of the most critical tools we have to fight the overdose crisis. With deaths from fentanyl and other opioids rising across the country, community-level action is more important than ever. That’s why Respond and Rescue has partnered with NaloxoKit to bring high-quality opioid overdose response training and naloxone kits to people across Northern Virginia. Together, we empower everyday citizens to recognize an overdose, respond confidently, and save lives.
Why Opioid Overdose Response Training Is Essential
The opioid epidemic continues to devastate communities, with overdose deaths reaching historic levels each year. The ability to respond quickly and effectively during an opioid overdose can mean the difference between life and death. Opioid overdose response training ensures that individuals have the knowledge and skills to recognize the signs of an overdose, administer naloxone (Narcan), and provide crucial support until emergency responders arrive.
