County Expands Narcan Access at Airport


Seminole County Community Health has partnered with Orlando Sanford International Airport to install publicly accessible Narcan stations throughout the airport as part of ongoing efforts to address the opioid epidemic and improve public safety. 

With more than three million passengers traveling through annually, officials say having Narcan readily available allows for faster response in the event of an overdose—often before emergency medical personnel arrive.

Narcan boxes have been installed alongside AEDs to ensure quick access in emergencies, and airport staff note there have already been instances where rapid deployment helped save lives. 

The program is part of a broader County initiative with more than 31 free Narcan distribution sites across Seminole County, funded through grants and opioid settlement dollars rather than taxpayer funding.
