This trial is for adults who've survived an opioid overdose, can provide contact information for follow-ups, and are willing to confirm future substance use disorder treatment. They must speak English well enough to understand the study and consent. People in custody or with certain medical/psychiatric conditions that prevent participation are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The PILOT study tests a new peer intervention aimed at improving outcomes after opioid overdoses compared to usual emergency department care. It evaluates if this enhanced support helps survivors better engage with treatment post-overdose.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves peer interventions rather than medications, traditional side effects aren't expected. However, participants may experience emotional or psychological impacts from discussing their overdose experiences.
