Course Overview

Opioid overdoses can become life-threatening medical emergencies when a person's breathing becomes dangerously slow or stops. These emergencies can occur in a variety of settings, including offices, warehouses, retail locations, manufacturing facilities, and other workplaces. Recognizing the warning signs and responding quickly can make an important difference while emergency medical services are on their way.

This training provides an overview of opioid overdose recognition and workplace response procedures. Participants will learn how to identify the signs of a suspected overdose using the overdose triad framework, which focuses on three critical indicators: decreased level of consciousness, respiratory depression, and pinpoint pupils. The course explains why recognizing these warning signs and activating emergency services are essential first steps.

The program introduces naloxone, commonly known by the brand name Narcan, and explains how this medication can temporarily reverse the effects of an opioid overdose. Participants will review the proper administration of Narcan nasal spray using the Peel, Place, Press method. The training also covers the importance of following product instructions, recognizing when another dose may be required, and continuing to monitor the individual after administration.

Post-administration care is another important component of the course. Learners will explore appropriate recovery positioning, continued monitoring, and the importance of remaining with the individual until emergency medical personnel arrive. The course also addresses the possibility of withdrawal symptoms following naloxone administration and the need to communicate relevant information to responding EMS personnel.

The training examines workplace overdose response considerations in New York, including relevant provisions of New York Labor Law and Public Health Law, along with federal OSHA first-aid requirements. Participants will also learn about Good Samaritan legal protections and their relevance to individuals who provide emergency assistance in good faith.

The program further explores workplace preparedness, including the role of naloxone availability, emergency response planning, and coordination with existing first-aid resources such as automated external defibrillators (AEDs). Understanding workplace procedures and knowing where emergency supplies are located can help employees respond more effectively when an overdose occurs.

By understanding opioid overdose recognition, proper naloxone administration, and post-administration care, employees and organizations can strengthen emergency preparedness and help protect individuals experiencing a suspected opioid overdose.
