00:00So, in the likelihood of an overdose, you come and you see the person is unresponsive.

00:07They could be blue, they're not moving, they're breathing shallow.

00:11So it's maybe a good time to maybe call their name.

00:14Paul? Paul? Maybe check for breathing, check for some vital signs.

00:21If there's nothing happening, our message is call an ambulance.

00:27We call the ambulance and then we're able to administer the Nixoid.

00:31So it comes in these boxes. There's two of these in it.

00:34These are dummy ones which I'm going to use on Paul.

00:37So I'm going to get down and I'm just going to put it in his nose and I'm just going to press.

00:43And then I'm going to stand back and wait.

00:48If after two minutes he doesn't respond, there's another Nixoid in here.

00:53So if we can get that out, we can come round and we can put it in the next hospital.

00:59Just try and stand back because what Naloxone can do, it can sharply bring people out of their overdose.

01:05They can be agitated, it's been reported they can become a bit angsty and whatnot.

01:11So it's just about just standing back, just checking they're alright, waiting for that ambulance to come as well.

01:16And that's pretty simple and this is life-saving stuff.

01:20This needs to be in the community. Let's end overdose and raise awareness of it.
