Service Industry Naloxone Trainings

USU Extension is providing onsite and virtual overdose prevention training to help employees identify the signs and symptoms of an opioid overdose and learn how to use Narcan, which is a nasal spray used to reverse opioid overdoses. Employees are sometimes the first to witness an overdose event and respond to it before EMS arrives, so having the knowledge, skills, confidence, and resources to respond successfully can help save someone's life.

Who is this training for?

• Service industry employees who work at places like bars, restaurants, hotels, motels, gas stations, and others.
• Industries that can have higher rates of injuries, including construction, mining, and trucking.
• College students including those who are involved with student organizations (fraternities, sororities, student government, housing, etc.).

Businesses and organizations that register for the training can receive an emergency overdose response kit to keep on-site that includes Narcan, a CPR mask, gloves, and key items needed to respond to an overdose. Attendees who attend the training will receive a Narcan kit (2-pack spray) and wallet card with overdose signs, response steps, and self-care information. Supplies of the Narcan spray are limited and may not be available in every county, but we will do our best to accommodate requests.

Each training will last approximately 40 minutes and can be scheduled virtually or on-site during shift changes, existing training times, or other convenient times. Certificates of completion for participants can be provided upon request.
