Hi i’m jess in the clinical nurse manager for depaul we film this overdose management and naloxone the administration video with the help of our staff our service users and our volunteers to help build confidence in managing these situations in their services this first scene demonstrates what to do if you find somebody who may be under the influence of substances
Whose unresponsive and not breathing hello hello hi someone call and one to bring in lots of someone is unresponsive in the tv room ruben when a person is not breathing and requires cpr the aed is needed one person should open turn on the aed and attach the pads as soon as it arrives on the scene while the other person is checking for breathing giving breaths
Or starting compressions to use naloxone check the expiration date remove the clear film wrapping by twisting the outer plastic box as shown and removing the seal open the box which contains one syringe of naloxone and two needles remove the instructions and place them beside you check that the needles seal isn’t broken and open the needle by pushing the blue top
Through the paper backing remove the rubber cap of the naloxone syringe and attach the needle in a twisting motion hold the naloxone firmly at the barrel and not the tip of the needle sheath remove the needle sheath being careful to keep your fingers away you administer one dose of naloxone in the largest part of the lake at a 90 degree angle holding the device
Like a pen or a dart inject the naloxone slowly into the first black line place the use naloxone back into the yellow tray being careful not to touch off anything take over compressions from your partner after administering naloxone continue compressions for another one cycle of cpr 30 compressions to 2 breaths administer a second dose of naloxone after 3 cycles
Of cpr repeat these steps until the person wakes up or help arrives this next scene demonstrates what you should do if you happen to find somebody who’s unresponsive but is still breathing weakly alright love ok rica can you hear me marika hi it’s jessica just doing the checks here i’m in room 3 marika stopped responding can be conned out of us bring the locks

Demonstrating the use of naloxone one where a person’s not breathing and one more persons unresponsive but is still breathing it’s important that when a service user returns after overdosing that we provide an overdose prevention intervention this might be keeping somebody on high-risk checks or referring them to another health care provider or using your naloxone
Champions on site to promote personal naloxone kits it’s important to know that not every overdose happens immediately after taking a substance overdoses can happen over a long period of time and they can be what we call slow burners the most important things you can deal with you find someone unresponsive it’s called for help after that user acts on the rock song can save lives
