SAEM 2025

The Society of Academic Emergency Medicine Annual Meeting hosted its annual conference week in Philadelphia this past May that included an extensive offering of talks on research, best practices, and ongoing work in the emergency medicine field. Students and attendees of SAEM spent a day of the conference making Narcan kits and distributed them to the community throughout the public metro stations in the Center City area.

CAMP was spotlighted (pg. 88) on their September-October 2025 web publication with our Medical Director Dr. Jeanmarie Perrone & Project Manager Jasmine Barnes!

Volunteers at the CAMP office before outreach in the community! Kits included the overdose reversal medication Narcan, fentanyl test strips, safer-use materials, and community resources.

Conference attendees from the Society of Academic Emergency Medicine (SAEM) joined CAMP for Narcan kitmaking and community outreach at the 15th St MFL SEPTA Station on May 13, 2025.

"This was such a great experience! I've already implemented some of the creative education techniques into my own practice. I also learned about medetomidine laced drugs which has been useful as we've seen in down here as well. This was a fantastic experience!" - SAEM volunteer
