This month we would like to highlight the smartphone app NalaxoFind. NaloxoFind lets users register as a naloxone (Narcan) carrier or use the app to find naloxone carriers in an emergency, while waiting for emergency services to arrive. If a carrier is nearby they will be alerted when a naloxone request is made. The app allows carriers to quickly see where the emergency is and get directions using their smartphone.
Trained naloxone carriers can customize their response radius. For instance, if you are a naloxone carrier, you can set your app to only alert you for emergencies within your neighborhood. NaloxoFind can be found in the App Store and Google Play store.
