Naloxone:
At the core of our values we provide services for people experiencing homelessness while living with acute addictions. In 2017, we went further in providing the best possible care to those with addictions by training staff and service users in the use of Naloxone, a life-saving overdose antidote. Throughout 2017, 95 staff were trained to spot the signs of overdose and administer Naloxone should the need arise. A total of 24 lives were saved in our services as a result of staff administering Naloxone to service users as they experienced drug overdose.
