Memphis has become the first city in America to have one of its Certified Nursing Assistance Programs to have Narcan Opioid Overdose Reversal Training as apart of its curriculum.

More people died from opioid overdose in 2018 in Memphis and Shelby County than those that died from the same cause in the entire state of Mississippi.
