This particular overdose took place in one of the side streets located by a commercial area.
The person was laying on the street.
We identified the symptoms as being consistent with an overdose.
One four milligram nasal spray of naloxone was administered and two and a half minutes and the person came around and became more responsive.
The heart is racing.
There's a sense of responsibility, definitely a sense of urgency.
There's also just a sense of gratitude that we have naloxone, this life-saving substance that really can reverse an overdose.
I've lost friends to opioid overdose.
Of course, incredible sense of loss and grief.
I've had a friend that his sister found him in the restroom behind a locked door and she found him and it was too late.
When you see how the crisis affects people that you know, people that you love, and you see the parents of those who haven't made it and the brothers and sisters and children of those who have not made it, it just makes you grateful to be able to do something to make a difference in some way.
