Saving Lives: Morgan Green on Battling the Opioid Crisis (Part 2)
“When we talk about an overdose, all we're doing is talking about the fact that your brain is no longer telling your respiratory system it has to remain active.”

She dives into the practicalities of using naloxone, commonly known as Narcan, to reverse an opioid overdose, breaking down the steps in a way that's easy to understand.
