Summary

This will be a usability trial to assess administration of naloxone via intramuscular, atomized intranasal, and nasal spray routes by nonmedical community members. Participants will undergo blocked randomization to naloxone kits containing supplies for one of the aforementioned routes and view an instructional video on how to appropriately administer the kit they were assigned. Participants will then have the opportunity to administer the simulated drug to a mannequin designated to simulate the route of administration assigned to the participant. The rate of successful administration will be determined for each route.
