An overdose is a life-threatening medical emergency. Naloxone is a life-saving medication that can temporarily reverse the effects of an opioid overdose, while waiting for 911 to arrive. Being able to recognize the signs of an overdose quickly and having a naloxone kit can save a life.
Join Ottawa Public Health nurses for this 30-minute virtual information and training session on how to identify and respond to an overdose, including how to administer Naloxone, followed by a 15-minute Q&A. Information on how to obtain a free kit will be provided as part of this presentation.
This is a hybrid program. The presenter is remote and will be on-screen in the Beaverbrook Branch.

This feature-length documentary is a portrait of eclipse chasers, people for whom solar eclipses - among nature's more spectacular phenomena – are a veritable obsession. The film follows 4 of them as they travel incredible distances to witness the last total eclipse of the millennium as it sweeps eastward across Europe to India. At various points along the way enthusiasts Alain Cirou in France, Paul Houde in Austria, Olivier Staiger in Germany and Debasis Sarkar in India offer their impressions of the historic event.
2000, 58 min, French with English subtitles
_________________________________________
L'éclipse du Soleil subjugue les êtres humains. Pour certains, l'attrait des éclipses s'apparente à une passion obsessive... Qu'est-ce qui peut bien faire courir ces chasseurs d'ombre? La caméra suit quatre d'entre eux venus assister à la dernière éclipse totale du millénaire, dont le tracé d'ombre traverse l'Europe jusqu'en Orient. À différents points du parcours : Alain Cirou, en France, Paul Houde, en Autriche, Olivier Staiger, en Allemagne, et Debasis Sarkar, en Inde. Depuis les légendes anciennes jusqu'à aujourd'hui, un point de convergence : la quête d'une spiritualité à l'état brut.
