body
DEPARTMENT: Health
ORIGINATOR: Rhonda Smids-Osborne
EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION: Approved by Lacey Harper 4/27/23
PURPOSE: Approve form agreements for naloxone distribution for use with local jurisdictions within Snohomish County. Prior to its integration into Snohomish County, the Snohomish Health District entered into naloxone distribution agreements with intergovernmental agencies, such as tribal governments, police departments, and fire departments, and wish to continue and build these partnerships to aid in implementing a Leave-Behind Naloxone Distribution Program with first responders.
BACKGROUND: The opioid epidemic is a public health, safety, and economic crisis impacting all communities within Snohomish County and resulting in a significant loss of life to residents. In exchange for data regarding opioid overdoses occurring within the county, the Snohomish County Health Department currently provides naloxone to partner jurisdictions that respond to opioid overdoses within Snohomish County. This opioid overdose data is used to track areas of high demand for naloxone in order to shift naloxone resources to those areas as those areas change over time. The Health Department recognizes the public health, safety, and welfare benefits of promoting wider availability of naloxone within Snohomish County.
