NALOXONE (NARCAN) DISPENSERS

Arkansas Northeastern College (ANC) has installed 29 opioid overdose kits/pouches across campus.  These kits provide Naloxone, also known as Narcan, an opioid overdose reversal medication.  These will improve the capacity of bystander rescuers to save the lives of victims of an opioid overdose.

DID YOU KNOW?

Opioid overdose is currently the leading cause of death among adults 50 years old and younger in the United States.  Without immediate intervention, opioid  overdoses can quickly lead to death.

HOW DO YOU KNOW IF SOMEONE MAY HAVE OVERDOSED ON AN OPIOID?

Common signs are respiratory failure, slow breathing, small pupils, unresponsiveness, or blue skin from poor circulation.

Naloxone / Narcan Info Sheet

WILL IT HURT THEM TO GIVE NALOXONE

IF THEY HAVEN'T USED AN OPIOID?

No, the Naloxone is harmless if given to someone who doesn't need it.

CAN ANYONE ADMINISTER THE NALOXONE?

Yes.  In-person training is not required.  Instructions are provided on this site as well as inside the kit itself.  The kit has instructions to call 911, as well as if and when to give a second dose of Naloxone.

COULD THE PERSON SUE ME FOR GIVING THEM NALOXONE?

No.  According to Arkansas Take Back,

 

The Opioid Antagonist Immunity Act (2015) SB880 allows individuals to administer naloxone in good faith without civil liability, or professional sanctions.  The purpose is to enhance the emergency services of first responders, to create the naloxone access act, and to provide immunity for prescribing , dispensing, and administering naloxone and other opioid antagonists.

OPIOID OVERDOSE KIT TRAINING VIDEOS

Instructions are provided in the kit or pouch, and all ANC staff, faculty, and students are encouraged to review the following Opioid Overdose Rescue Kit training videos.
