Improving Availability of Intranasal Naloxone

"EOE was adapted by Co-I Dr. Monique Miley at HHC's premier addiction hospital-The Rushford Center. It follows the guidelines set by Co-PI Jonathan Craig Allen when working with opioid patients reluctant to obtain naloxone:~* Express confidence in naloxone~* Provide a clear statement about suitability (You are an excellent candidate for naloxone)~* Begin discussion using presumptive language (You must be ready for an overdose)"

Written instructions that accompany a kit prescription in many EDs throughout the country.
