Description: This webinar addresses the heavy topic of opioid use, abuse, overdose, and prevention. Per Subchapter E-1, TEC §38.222(c) & §38.224(b), one or more school personnel members or volunteers on each campus of a district or open-enrollment charter school that adopts a policy for the administration of opioid antagonists requires training on opioid overdose. In this webinar, participants will learn how to recognize the signs and symptoms of an opioid-related drug overdose, administer an opioid antagonist, implement emergency procedures if necessary, and properly dispose of used or expired opioid antagonists. Fentanyl is addressed as well as mandatory reporting of the administration of an opioid antagonist, such as naloxone (Narcan).
