New Naloxone Training for Online and Mobile Devices

November 08, 2017

St. Paul’s Hospital and TowardTheHeart.com are launching a new naloxone training that can be completed online and on mobile devices.

What you need to know about NaloxoneTraining.com:

• People can complete the new training online and on their mobile device – so more people can quickly access high-quality naloxone training, while reducing the burden on naloxone sites
• The new training is comprehensive, and covers OD prevention, recognition and response
• When someone completes the training, a certificate will display on their device and you can dispense a kit to them
• People may also print off a certificate with their name on it and bring it in to your site so you can dispense a kit to them
• This may increase demand for kits at your site – please contact outreach@towardtheheart.com if you have any issues related to the new training
• We still need your help to make sure people can practice using the THN supplies. Please continue to provide hands-on training using our practice supplies to people who have a certificate from this training
• Always make sure people understand the importance of giving breaths, and how to give breaths, see: https://towardtheheart.com/resource/why-give-breaths/open
• Having a chance to use the practice supplies (needles, ampoules and snappers, gloves and breathing masks) may help people feel better prepared in an overdose emergency!

If you transfer THN kits to other sites, please share this important information with them!
