This reminds me of the patient I had that was lifeless, and after 4 Narcan he just jumped up like a bull and charged at us, it was scary.

There are a lot of different drugs around that are heavily used despite the chance of severe complications, opioids/opiates being only one among many. Luckily, there is a well-known and commonly found counter to the symptoms of overdose for these cases, though if not caught in time, it can, as in most other medical emergencies, lead to the death of the patient. Since there is a way to try to help, it is essential to know the signs and symptoms of these overdoses (and any others, for that matter) and provide the best care and transport possible.

Whether it's accidental or not overdosing and poisoning has risen over the years. What we do know is the worst possible outcome is death and if not caught in time can lead to many problems. We have to make sure we try to find out what was taken to be able to administer narcan or if we have to do other things.

With the rise in drug use these days it is important to try and wake someone when you see them sleeping or possibly unconscious in a vehicle. It is important to find out from them or someone else around if possible to find out what they took as narcan can’t be used for everything and you don’t want to administer it to someone that don’t need it or if it won’t help

Toxicological emergencies could have quite a number of complications. You can have anywhere from drug overdoses, to poisoning.  It goes without saying that many cases of these emergencies can lead to death, or other long term health problems.

We recently obtained Narcan at LRCR because of the risk that comes from opiate overdose and Fentanyl exposure within the casino. We have a fair amount of clientele that partake in illegal drug use. Whenever we respond to a potential drug we always have PPE on.  It's such a comfort to know that we have an additional option to counteract opiates. We have Narcan in all of our medical bags, and in some areas that are at high risk of exposure. We just gotta remember that Narcan only cancels opiates and not hard drugs. So we need to be careful about a patient suddenly becoming violent or agitated because we just killed their $800 high.

With how the war on drugs is, we have had to take extra precautions. We have several employees who handle money all day long. Lots of them wear gloves for the sake of cleanliness because money is super dirty. The concern of running into absorption drugs like fentanyl has grown. I've found my fair share of rolled up bills between the casino and the hotel. Having proper PPE is something we can't stress enough. Do not raw dog it, please put on some gloves. Call the appropriate channels and write the report. We have placed narcan in all of our med bags and in several other locations within the casino.
