FREE online training - REVIVE! opioid overdose and naloxone education

REVIVE! opioid overdose reversal online training graphic

Overdoses can happen in unexpected situations – a social gathering, a school event, with a friend or family member, or other community event. You may not know that someone is at risk of overdose. Stigma prevents many who use drugs from telling others. Do you know how to help someone who has overdosed on opioids?

The Fairfax-Falls Church Community Services Board (CSB) is offering a free online REVIVE! classes that will provide you with the knowledge and confidence you need to potentially save a life during an opioid overdose emergency.

During this 60-minute virtual class, you will learn:

  • How to recognize the signs and symptoms of an opioid overdose.
  • How to administer naloxone nasal spray to potentially reverse the effects of an opioid overdose.
  • What to do and not do when responding.

In order to access the online class, you will need:

  • A smart phone, tablet, desktop or laptop computer equipped with a camera, microphone and speakers.
  • Zoom video meetings conferencing software, available for free download.

If you would like more information on how to obtain naloxone in your region, or outside the Fairfax-Falls Church area, please contact the Wellness, Health Promotion & Prevention Team.
