Please phone. GIDDENS OPTOMETRY The Halton Hills Fire Department is recom- mending not to enroll in the Ontario Naloxone Program, as they are not seeing a need for the opioid mitigation drug in town. "We are currently not seeing the impacts or de- mands on resources that other communities unfor- tunately are seeing," said a report brought forward to the Halton Hills com- munity and corporate af- fairs committee. "None offairs committee. "None off the other fire services in our region have taken steps to enroll in this pro- gram." The Ontario Naloxone Program is an initiative by the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, to provide naloxone, a drug that combats the effects of an opioid overdose to first responders across the province. "We keep a close eye on statistics," said Halton Hills chief administrative officer Brent Marshall. "It doesn't seem to have reached our community yet." The report says that the department has the option to enroll in the pro- gram if they meet a set of eligibility requirements and engage in a memoran- dum of understanding with the local public health unit. "We just believe that we're in the right place at this point in time," Mar- shall said, noting that fire- fighters will need special-fighters will need special-f ized training to be able to administer the drug. "It's a step that you want to take when you're sure." Senior staff in the fire department met with members of the region's public health department, as well as other emergen- cy service representatives through the Joint Emer- gency Services Operation Advisory Group in mak- ing the decision. The fire department will continue to monitor the situation locally, and should there be any changes, they will report these to the local Commu- nity Care Access Centre (CCAC).
