    “It’s become a sad rite of passage in many American communities, the services held for teenagers killed in auto accidents before they’ve even scored a tassel to hang from the rearview mirror”.

    While driving my son to archery practice, I pulled into the parking lot and immediately saw two people standing over the form of a young man lying on the pavement. As a nurse, I felt compelled to know the circumstances of this odd situation, or if I might be of some assistance. I approached the two individuals, a man and a woman, and proceeded to ask what was going on. The man had just initiated a call to 911 as I looked down at the man lying on his back on the ground with his eyes closed. He appeared to be a very casually dressed, young man of about 27 years old. More importantly, he appeared to be barely breathing. I quickly knelt down on the cold, wet pavement to do a further assessment. Lifting back his eyelids, I could see the pinpoint size of his pupils; a tell- tale indicator to healthcare workers as opioid overdose. Opioids overdose can lead to death by causing respiratory depression, and eventually respiratory arrest. The risk of exposure to health dangers crossed my mind, but briefly. With more than a concern for my personal safety, I spared no time in beginning CPR with mouth to mouth rescue breathing, and chest compressions as his heart stopped beating as well. I was by myself performing CPR while the other two people had left the scene of the incident. Worried and exhausted, I continued CPR awaiting emergency crews to arrive on scene. Police, then…
