Employees of businesses in downtown Phoenix are getting the chance to save a life learning how to administer Narcan.
"They’re getting two doses of Narcan, and if they choose four fentanyl testing strips, and together, these can save lives.
""One of the things that were finding is the potential for going into a public space, and being accidentally exposed, especially to fentanyl," the lawmaker said."The fentanyl testing strips will test for unknown fentanyl," Longdon explained, as drugs that are abused or used recreationally can be laced with fentanyl."Administration of Narcan before 911 gets there can save lives," Longdon said.
