Standard equipment for security guards at many Boston-area hospitals now includes the powerful opioid overdose-reversing drug naloxone, according to an article on the HCPro website.
The public restrooms of healthcare facilities have become prime real estate for those looking for a safer place to shoot up.
There are several things hospitals can do to maintain public restrooms that maximize safety for the drug users and the general public. They include:
• Keeping restrooms well-lit and clean
• Use stainless steel surfaces
• Minimize cracks and crevices where drugs or paraphernalia could be stashed
• Ensure that doors open outward (so no one can block the door by collapsing in front of it)
• Use locks that are easy to disengage from the outside
