A community opiod and stimulant overdose reversal training will be held November 3 from 6:00-7:30 p.m. at Tennessee College of Applied Technology, 813 West Main Street.

Regional Overdose Prevention Specialist Dustin Ritchie will lead the training.

By equipping individuals with naloxone and training to identify and respond to an overdose, the potential delay between the onset of an opioid overdose and the delivery of life-saving care can be reduced from hours to seconds. This is especially true in rural areas, where residents may experience longer EMS response times.
