Naloxone Training Among Sorority-Affiliated College Students: An Observational Study
This novel intervention, which combined didactic with hands-on learning methods, led to demonstrated improvements in knowledge of opioids, opioid toxicity, and opioid overdose response among sorority-affiliated college students. Routinely providing opioid education and practical hands-on naloxone training in college settings is recommended, and future studies should investigate students' long-term knowledge retention and real-world application of skills learned.
