First Responder Naloxone Technical Assistance

This webpage provides information on the opioid overdose epidemic in Massachusetts, and the grants awarded by the State Department of Public Health (DPH) for Police and Fire Departments to carry and administer naloxone, an opioid overdose antidote, in municipalities that are most affected by this epidemic. It also includes information on accessing naloxone for non-DPH funded First Responder departments, such as information on accessing the Bulk Purchasing Program, training resources, and sample policies and data collection forms.
