Overdose Prevention and Bystander Training
Teaching our community
Aligned with AMA Opioid Task Force and ACP Naloxone Guidance, increasing knowledge and access to Naloxone requires medical students to be trained on its efficacy and importance. Our goal with this information is to make an impact on our community. This includes being prepared on how to reverse and overdose and spreading awareness.
UAG ACP IMIG would like to highlight members who have completed and received their certificate of training​

As a patient advocate, it is important to stay informed. Narcan can save a life, and the more people you can inform, the better use we can give this medication to save lives.

Having access to a nasal spray that can reverse the effects of an opiate overdose can save lives, everyone should understand the importance and use of Narcan.

Addiction impacts us all. We all know and love someone with substance use disorder. Being trained on naloxone administration saves lives.
