Drug poisonings are increasing in Cowichan and the Southern Gulf Islands. Anyone using unregulated substances faces increased risk.

If you find someone who has overdosed take the following steps: stay with them and call 911, give 1 breath every 5 seconds, and give them Naloxone.

You can grab a Naloxone kit and get your drugs checked at the Overdose Prevention Centre, 5878 York Rd in Duncan.

To keep yourself safe, follow the following tips: know your tolerance, start low/go slow, and stagger use with a friend if possible. If using alone, let someone know and ask them to check on you or use check-in services like the National OD Response service line at 1 888 688 6677 or the Lifeguard Connect app.

Together, we can save lives and reduce risk in our community.
