This training session will identify steps to take in preventing and addressing youth non-prescribed opioid use and promote mental health and skill development and delay youth substance use.
Participants will be able to define the need/benefit for establishing a prevention education and overdose emergency response action plan by incorporating overdose emergency response into the school's emergency preparedness response plans. They will also learn signs of an overdose and how to administer naloxone, name brand Narcan, should an overdose situation arise.
Each high school will receive 2 naloxone kits and an emergency medication box through a CareSource grant funding at no cost to the school. Overdose Lifeline is a registered entity which aligns with Indiana Code requirements for training in this area.
Other schools may request naloxone kits
