EMS Training & Opioid Response 2024 - EMS Training & Opioid Response - PROJECT ABSTRACT SUMMARY The EMS Training & Opioid Response Program through Bennington Rescue is a series of targeted initiatives to improve the capacity and capabilities of EMS response to substance use disorder and mental health emergencies. This program targets rural Bennington County in the southwest corner of the state of Vermont with an estimated population of 37,235. This program uses a combination of education, equipment, and partnership to improve outcomes and increase the number of EMS clinicians for the region. Specific interventions in this program include providing initial EMS education; continuing education to maintain EMS certifications or licenses; targeted education for improving care of patients experiencing substance use disorder and mental health emergencies; equipment purchases to support education and the field care of patients; harm reduction via distribution of naloxone leave behind kits and recovery resource information; field buprenorphine by paramedics to facilitate care after acute opioid withdrawal; and partnerships with peer recovery coaches and medication assisted treatment providers in the community. Bennington Rescue established commitment from partners within the community toward this program including the regional EMS District Medical Advisor (medical director), peer recovery and coaching organization Turning Point Center of Bennington, and mental health and medication assisted treatment providers United Counseling Service and SaVida Health.
