Residents are encouraged to call 811 or visit Naloxone Kit Distribution Sites for information on where to access free naloxone kits.
A public warning today from the Department of Health and Community Services. Resources are available to those seeking mental health and addictions services, as well as harm reduction resources. Free naloxone kits are publicly available to reverse the potentially fatal effects of an overdose involving opioids such as fentanyl. Residents are encouraged to call 811 or visit Naloxone Kit Distribution Sites for information on where to access free naloxone kits. The department encourages the public to not use alone, reduce the quantity used at one time and always keep a naloxone kit on hand. Two hundred kits arrived this week, with another 800 on route to be distributed in the near future. There are four Opioid Dependence Treatment Hubs, which can be reached by calling 1-844-752-3588 to reach an office in Corner Brook.
