OSPI has released updated Opioid Overdose Reversal Policy and Training Guidelines for Schools. Key updates include new guidance on students’ self-carry policies, storage of naloxone and other reversal medications in cabinets or alternative locations, post-incident support for staff and students, and recommended communication strategies for engaging students and families.
