I can understand your concerns about administering naloxone or calling 911 for help if you witnessed an overdose.

But New Jersey's Good Samaritan law protects you from being sued for making a mistake while providing emergency care for someone who overdosed. The law also protects people from arrest and criminal prosecution related to reporting a possible drug overdose.

So there's nothing to worry about when you're doing your part to save someone's life.
