Lake County Office of Education Naloxone Policy

SafeRx Lake County worked with Lake County Office of Education to recently implement a local school naloxone policy. This policy allows for the superintendent or designee, or any trained district staff member, to administer naloxone during an opioid overdose. It also includes language to ensure the superintendent or designee trains and distributes naloxone kits to district staff, and replaces any used or expired kits. This is an excellent showcase on how COPN coalitions are implementing policy change at the local level. To learn more and view the policy click here.
