If you are concerned that someone is experiencing a medical emergency, please CALL 911.

If you have NALOXONE, please use it now. 

Stay calm and know that you are doing the right thing. One call could be the one that saves someone's life. Just Call 911 Quick Reference Guide. The UCSB Responsible Action Protocol, (see page 6 of the Student Code of Conduct) is similar to the California Good Samaritan Law and protects students who make a call on behalf of themselves or someone needing assistance.
