The Problem

The Solution

​Naloxone is a safe medication that is widely used by emergency medical personnel and other first responders to prevent opioid overdose deaths. Unfortunately, by the time a person having an overdose is reached, it is often too late. 

The Law

​The New Jersey Good Samaritan Law permits the administration of naloxone by non-medical professionals who recieve proper formal training. No one has ever been succesfully held liable for naloxone administration.
