Nasal Naloxone Pilot Information for Selected Sites
This information is intended for registered THN sites that have been selected by their regional Health Authority for participation in the nasal naloxone pilot.
The Province of BC has announced a pilot project to distribute nasal naloxone kits through the BCCDC Take Home Naloxone (THN) program. A pilot project is a small, short-term trial.
Select registered THN sites will receive a one-time shipment of nasal naloxone kits for distribution to eligible populations. Once the pilot project is complete (i.e., all kits are distributed), nasal naloxone kits will no longer be available through the BCCDC THN program.
Informational Resource for Participating Sites
