Doses of Narcan will now be attached to lock boxes outside numerous public facilities countywide.
Officials say the
drug is incredibly safe to use and easy to administer, especially
considering it only takes a few minutes before the effects of an overdose
are irreversible.
It's important to
note, Narcan is a temporary solution and 911 should still be called in
the case of an opioid overdose.
