Impact of UNODC/WHO S-O-S (stop-overdose-safely) training on opioid overdose knowledge and attitudes among people at high or low risk of opioid overdose in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Ukraine
OEND training using the S-O-S training package resulted in substantial improvements in knowledge and attitudes related to opioid overdose and responses in the four countries, with improvements most notable amongst those at lower personal risk of opioid overdose. Widespread implementation of OEND using the S-O-S training package or similar could improve opioid overdose response in LMICs.
