Transforming Health reporter Brett Sholtis recently rode along with a Susquehanna Township, Dauphin County EMS crew.  During the evening Brett was with the first responders, a call came in that a man had overdosed on opioids.  The man was revived and possibly saved from dying by Naloxone.  It turns out it was the second straight day the man overdosed.

On this Smart Talk segment, Brett explains what happened.
