Polk County Public Health now provides free nasal Narcan kits at our Crookston, East Grand Forks, and McIntosh offices. These kits, designed to reverse opioid overdoses, are being distributed as part of our ongoing commitment to addressing the opioid epidemic in our communities.
Narcan (Naloxone) is an easy-to-use nasal spray that can rapidly reverse the effects of an opioid overdose. By equipping residents with Narcan and the knowledge of its use, community members will be better prepared to save the life of an individual experiencing an opioid overdose.
