The state Health Department has released its year-end report of the activities of Pennsylvania’s Emergency Medical Service providers.
One of the more interesting statistics is the number of times emergency personnel administered Naloxone to overdose victims. In Jefferson County it was administered 19 times last year, and 29 times in Clearfield County, while Indiana County had 71 incidents of administering Naloxone by EMS providers.
The Health Department began issuing EMS data reports just last year, so there is no similar report from 2017 for comparison.
