3 takeaways i have from these presentations is the good Samaritans act. This act apply to both CPR and drug overdoses. As long as you aren’t being negligent the Good Samaritan act falls into place and protects you. Another thing i learned was that you can administer naloxone more than once. If the person you gave it to doesn’t wake up then you should give another dose. Every dose of naloxone wears off about 20 mins after you have given it. The last thing i learned was when you are going to get naloxone from the pharmacy, they may ask you questions but it isn’t mandatory to respond to the questions. It is also harder to find the nasal spray of naloxone compared to the needle type. These presentations impact my life because when i am out and about i feel more comfortable helping someone on the street. This also has an impact on my life by giving me more knowledge on how to give out naloxone and more about the drug.
Critical and Reflective Thinking Competency Reflection
i can analyze evidence to make judgements because i have learned more about saving someone I don’t know. I can assess the situation and do what makes me feel comfortable. As i asses i can also keep calm and do what is needed to help the person live.
