Needle Exchange Survey for School - Very short I promise

I just did it, but the last question is a strange one. still not sure if I answered it the way I wanted to, and its bugging me.

first off I just don't understand the last question, but I would like to add that I think needle exchanges should give out narcan, which technically is a medication.

Well I believe that needle exchanges should provide narcan, but I believe that it should be at a small fee.

But I do think that it would decrease the amount of people needing to make ER visits due to overdoses.
 
I did watch something where a guy that worked at a needle exchange was giving out 10ML vials of it (thats 10 lives), and he was saying that they pay like $2 something for them, and he broke it down to how much a ML is worth (becuase thats the dose to bring someone back) is. very interesting stuff.

I'd like to know that if they could sell it per dose that way its not over a buck, and just whatever change, that some junkies would hop on it, but I don't see many junkies throwin' down $2 on it. I did answer "government funded" on the one question though. because it'd be doing the community a service, cut down on the spread of HIV and other blood transfered diseases.
 
Thank you all for taking the survey and commenting. You are really helping me out here because I know very little about these exchanges, as you could probably tell from my survey. I'm interested in the subject but not the school project, that's why the survey is sucky because my teacher reviewed it. Thanks again and if anyone else has some more info I'm writing the final draft over the next three days so comments and more surveys are welcome.

On the subject of giving out narcan and the last question, I had no idea they did that but that I would have to throw that under the HR category. You can't get high off narcan.
 
It has also come to my attention that this might be violating some rules by asking people to take a survey, if that's the case I'm sorry I plead ignorance. This is just for an English class, I don't have any money making or drug sourcing motivations, this was just the only site that I thought anyone would actually take survey (seriously) regarding that subject.

They should give the aerosol narcan. One spray up your nose... you're in hell for 24 hours BUT you're not dead.
 
Why are they heroes?? Helping addicts out with clean rigs is a good deed to be sure, but heroes??

I think that term gets applied way too often these days.

"Good Samaritans" are still cool too. Not everyone who helps others needs to be called a hero.

I just changed the toilet paper at work even though it's technically someone else's job.

Where's my medal??
