Combating the rise of fentanyl-related overdoses by partnering with local law enforcement and community leaders to distribute Narcan kits and offer life-saving training.

Why we did it

Adventist Health Simi Valley recognized the urgent need to address the alarming rise in fentanyl-related overdoses within the community. By actively participating in community events and providing essential resources, the health system sought to empower residents, reduce overdose-related fatalities, and improve overall community well-being. This project aligns with Adventist Health’s mission to provide holistic, compassionate care that extends beyond the hospital and into the heart of the community.
