Program turns community members into overdose lifesavers The Herald-Times When a Hoosier overdoses on opioids, time is of the essence. Overstretched emergency medical technicians must often navigate large, rural areas to get to the person in need. Sometimes, first responders don t make it in time and another soul is lost to America s battle with the opioid epidemic.  What if the chances of quickly getting life-saving care to the people who need it could be improved? The Opioid Rapid Response System seeks to do just that by harnessing existing, widespread technologies to democratize the fight against opioid overdoses.
