Overdose Emergency Cabinets
Overdose Emergency Cabinets provide immediate access to life-saving Narcan in public spaces — empowering communities, schools, and workplaces to respond quickly and save lives when every second counts.
What Is an Overdose Emergency Cabinet?
An Overdose Emergency Cabinet is a publicly accessible wall-mounted box containing Narcan (naloxone) and simple instructions for responding to an overdose. These cabinets are placed in strategic locations so life-saving medication is available exactly when and where it’s needed most.
WHY THEY MATTER
Overdoses can happen anywhere — schools, workplaces, parks, community centers, and public events. Emergency responders may take several minutes to arrive. In an overdose, those minutes can mean the difference between life and death.
WHO SHOULD HAVE ONE
Overdose Emergency Cabinets are especially valuable in:
Schools & campuses
Community centers
Public buildings
Faith-based organizations
Healthcare and community service organizations centers
Event venues
Workplaces
Housing facilities
Parks & recreational spaces
If people gather there — it’s a potential life-saving location.
