Good Samaritan Drug Overdose Act

The Good Samaritan Drug Overdose Act is a law that came into effect in April 2017. Under it, you’re offered some protection from arrest if you call 911 in the event of an overdose. To save a life and ensure the person receives proper medical attention, always call 911 if you suspect someone is experiencing an overdose.
