Opioid Overdose Naloxone Education trainings help individuals learn what to do and not do in an overdose situation, how to administer naloxone, and what to do afterwards. This course is being provided online.

During this 60-minute virtual class held via Zoom, participants 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.
• Other knowledge needed to fully respond to an opioid overdose emergency (what to do and not do).

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.

Registration will be confirmed via an email, which will contain course log-in instructions for Zoom, how to obtain your REVIVE! Kit (2 CPR mouth barriers, vinyl gloves, stickers, instruction card) and naloxone.

Upon successful completion of the training, residents of Fairfax County and the Cities of Fairfax and Falls Church can receive a free box of naloxone upon request.
