Naloxone in the Workplace

May 9, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

Free
Learn to use a Naloxone kit to combat opioid overdose.

This seminar provides an in-depth look at opioid overdose statistics specific to our region. It describes opioid use disorder, using experience of front-line professionals from KFL&A Public Health to provide insight into why so many Canadians are turning to these deadly drugs despite the extreme danger. The seminar will end with a detailed naloxone training for each attendee and there will be plenty of time to answer questions relevant to you.

After this informative seminar each person will be more empowered to act when confronted with someone in acute opioid overdose and offered naloxone kits.

Contact Nour Mazloum, mazloum@investkingston.ca if you have any questions and/or if you’d like to access a Naloxone Kit.
