Rosie Gilliver presented at the NDARC Webinar Series on Thursday 25 August 2022. This presentation covered a review of how opioid overdoses for people who use drugs in our community are responded to. [58 minutes]

Opioid overdose remains an urgent issue in our community. Every year many people have their lives affected by accidental opioid overdose. Take Home Naloxone (THN) is one of the ways we can respond to this crisis. This presentation will include a brief overview of what is happening in Australia, look at the basics of what naloxone is, how we can provide THN to our community members and provide a review of THN at the Kirketon Road Centre, a Primary Health Care centre in Kings Cross, Sydney.
