Overdose Response Training

Public Group active %s

The Overdose Response Training (ORT) Group is focused on maximizing the resources for reduction and/or prevention of fatal opioid overdose in our community. Administration of naloxone in the setting of an opioid overdose that results in inadequate breathing is considered a harm reduction strategy. Naloxone administration is part of a much larger comprehensive program addressing the opioid epidemic also including education, prevention, and treatment. Classes teaching indications and technique for naloxone administration are held at the Garrett County Health Department (Oakland and Grantsville locations) and at sites outside of the Health Department upon request and availability.
