Naloxone training session in Ada

By Monty Siekerman
Members of the Hardin County Health Department and Hardin Memorial Hospital held a training session on how to properly administer Naloxone in the event of an opioid overdose. The program, held earlier this month at the Ada Public Library, is a cooperative effort of the county prosecutor’s office, sheriff’s office, coroner, health department, and hospital.

The training included a kit containing two doses of Naloxone, a face shield, and a reference guide.

Holding a Naloxone kit are Cindy Keller and Kelsey Ralston of the health department and Tammy Shepherd and Kim Reisinger of the hospital.
