Alliance of Coalitions for Healthy Communities hosts free Narcan trainings

Historically during the holidays, there’s an increase in accidental overdoses due to stress, anxiety and depression. The Alliance of Coalitions for Healthy Communities is hosting free online classes to educate, equip and empower community members to help save lives.

Attendees will learn how to administer Narcan if they’re faced with saving a life during an opioid overdose emergency. This interactive class, presented by a certified Narcan and CPR trainer, will take one hour, and a Save A Life Narcan Kit will be mailed directly to all attendees once essential forms have been completed.

The training includes information on the signs and symptoms of an opioid overdose, how to reverse a potential opioid overdose, and how to easily and properly use Narcan nasal spray

Trainings are at 7 p.m. on Tuesdays at tinyurl.com/ TUESDAYNARCAN and noon on Thursdays at tinyurl. com/THURSDAYNARCAN. All trainings can be found at achcmi.org/training/narcan-training-save-a-life or on the Alliance calendar achcmi.org/events.
