Tommy Ahlquist on Drugs

 

 


More law enforcement & clinical resources for opioid crisis

Ahlquist today announced his action plan to address Idaho's ongoing opioid crisis. The goal will be to reduce the number of opioid deaths in Idaho by 50% in 4 years. Tommy Ahlquist, M.D., says, "Whether from prescription opioids or illegal heroin--the death of even one Idahoan in the opioid epidemic is one too many."
    To reduce the number of opioid deaths:
  1. Join six other states in declaring a state of emergency
  2. Raise public awareness and assemble a broad group of leaders to help fight this crisis including state and local law enforcement, medical professionals, community leaders and churches
  3. Ensure law enforcement agencies and first responders have the training and equipment necessary to fight this crisis
  4. Evaluate and consider smart investments in substance abuse clinics that can help address this crisis
  5. Improve life-saving naloxone (opioid reversal drug) dissemination, and access to medical assisted treatment programs, and non-opioid chronic pain therapies in Idaho
