Research Questions
Further research may help to determine the effectiveness of OEND programs in various settings.
Future research questions regarding OEND programs may include:
- Developing and testing implementation strategies for improving the adoption and reach of OEND programs in new settings or through the use of novel personnel or technology
- Improving the transition/linkage from successful naloxone administration to longer-term treatment of substance use disorder and
- Pairing OEND with other harm reduction strategies, such as checking drugs for substances like fentanyl or xylazine.
