We recently had the pleasure of speaking w/ @DOPEproject team about what to do & say after you've used naloxone to reverse an overdose from opioids. A medical emergency like an overdose is traumatic & we can support ppl returning to consciousness with kindness & without judgment.
ALT ID: Tiles with rainbow gradient and large type: WELCOME BACK What to say after you respond to an overdose with naloxone.
ALT Waking up from an overdose can be traumatizing. As someone starts to wake up, give them a little bit of space and gently welcome the person back into consciousness.
