“Naloxbox” Installed At Hood River County Health Department

The Hood River County Health Department has installed a “Naloxbox,” or an opioid overdose rescue station, at its office at 1109 June Street.  The health department’s Daron Ryan says this is part of a project they have been working on with the Hood River County Prevention Department to make Naloxone available throughout the community.  She says the box is located between two doors on the north side of the Health Department building and will be available 24/7.  Ryan says they hope to install more of the public “Naloxbox” locations at various community locations.  She adds the County has trained over 600 people in how to use Naloxone and given out more than 1,000 kits that includes two doses of Naloxone and mental health resources that are available.
