The Overdose Detection Mapping Application Program (ODMAP) gives first responders the ability to document overdose-related data in real-time, allowing city officials and law enforcement to have nearly real-time access to overdose data enabling them to pinpoint where people are overdosing so that cities can target their interventions better.
What if an app could save lives in the fight against the opioid epidemic? In this episode of Cover2 Resources, Greg McNeil chats with Tom Carr, the Executive Director of High-Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas (HIDTA), about the Overdose Detection Mapping Application Program, or ODMAP. This innovative tool gives first responders real-time data on overdoses, helping city officials and law enforcement pinpoint hotspots and target their interventions more effectively.
With over 1,300 users across 37 states and 34,000 documented overdoses, ODMAP is making a significant impact. It's free to use and requires minimal training, making it accessible for communities nationwide. Linda Poon also joins the conversation to discuss how this app is changing the game in overdose prevention. Tune in to learn how technology is providing new hope in the battle against addiction.
