Narcan Training Sessions Offered To Hospitality Industry Employees

BERLIN – A local organization will host Narcan training sessions for those in the hotel, motel and real estate rental industries early next month.

Growing Hope, an organization with a goal to educate the community on the heroin and opioid epidemic, will offer three training sessions on Narcan, an antidote that reverses the effects of an overdose, June 8 at the 12th Street Howard Johnson.

Growing Hope’s Brian Shofi said those interested can attend a 9 a.m., 10:30 a.m. or noon session. Each class will last an hour and a half and can accommodate 20 people.

Shofi said the Narcan training sessions are a direct response to the influx of graduates that come to the resort each June and stay in hotels, motels and rentals.
