Following President Trump's declaration of the Opioid Crisis as a National Health Emergency, national initiatives have begun to take shape and receive a white-hot spotlight. In the state of Minnesota, much as it has nationwide, patient presenting with opioid overdoses has become rampant among certain patient groups.
