Opioid overdose training opportunities…The Oak Park Public Health Department is expanding its opioid overdose response and Naloxone (commonly known as Narcan) training opportunities. Starting in January, the Health Department will offer monthly training sessions for anyone who wants to learn more about harm reduction, how Narcan works, when and how to administer it and where to find it for free in Oak Park. Clinical and health education staff will provide hands-on instruction. In addition, the Health Department  will offer trainings for Oak Park businesses and organizations who would like their staff trained on opioid overdose prevention.
