💙 Take Home Naloxone Program: A Life-Saving Initiative 💙

Did you know the Australian Government offers a program to provide naloxone for free to people who may experience or witness an opioid overdose?

Naloxone is a safe and effective medication that can temporarily reverse the effects of an opioid overdose, potentially saving a life.

Key Facts:
🏥 Every day in Australia, 75 people are hospitalised due to opioid-related harm.
💔 2 lives are lost each day due to opioid-related harm — much of which is preventable.
✅ Naloxone is safe, even if accidentally given to someone who has not taken opioids.

How to Access Naloxone:
✔️ Free and without a prescription at participating pharmacies.
💊 Available over the counter for a fee at non-participating pharmacies.
📝 Also available with a prescription nationwide.

Take Action:
🔎 To find participating pharmacies or to order online, visit:
https://yourroom.health.nsw.gov.au/Naloxone
💬 Ask your pharmacist about Take Home Naloxone.

Having naloxone available and knowing how to use it could help you give the gift of time while waiting for an ambulance to arrive. 💙

🌏 International Youth Day 2026 🌏

Different Contexts, Common Aspiration - United Nations Youth

Young people may grow up in very different places and circumstances, but many share the same hopes — opportunity, education, connection, a voice in their community and a positive future.

This International Youth Day, we recognise the resilience, ideas and contribution of young people here in the Shoalhaven and around the world.

At South Coast First Aid, we believe in giving young people opportunities to build knowledge, practical skills and the confidence to help others — skills they can carry with them throughout life.

💙 Here’s to supporting and empowering the next generation.
