In this hard-hitting episode of MedInsights Unleashed, we tackle the escalating crisis of drug-related medical emergencies with guest speaker Eric Prach, MAS, BPsych—an EMT and police officer on the frontlines. This episode uncovers the harsh realities of fentanyl-laced overdoses, the rise of synthetic additives like Xylazine, and the increasing concern over Kratom use among young individuals.
Eric provides critical insights into the life-saving role of Narcan, the challenges EMS teams face in overdose response, and the alarming prevalence of drug use in schools. As volunteer EMT numbers decline, hybrid staffing models are becoming the new norm.
