Sober House Where Presley Gerber Died Had Prior Overdose Call

The sober living house where Presley Gerber died from a suspected overdose last month had police responding to a separate possible overdose call earlier this year, according to a report.

Officials responded to a call from Resolutions Living on February 18, concerning a patient who may have overdosed, according to police records obtained by TMZ. A source informed the outlet that the individual, a woman, was found unresponsive but was eventually revived. Police reportedly arrived, spoke with the woman, and left without taking her to the hospital.

The source added that it took at least five doses of Narcan to revive the woman. Narcan, also known as naloxone, is a medication used to rapidly reverse an opioid overdose.

Gerber, son of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, was staying at Resolutions Living's Santa Monica facility at the time of his death on September 20. He was 27 years old. It is not clear if the patient who overdosed in February was at the facility when Gerber was present.

Gerber's cause of death is still pending, but his death is attributed to a suspected overdose.

The Resolutions Living facility focuses on addiction and mental health support. Its website states that its staff caters to each resident's specific needs at the three-story property. Dr. Reza Nabavi, the founder and owner of the facility, had his psychology license denied in the past due to a criminal history involving drugs and a minor. He was arrested in 2002 and found with drugs and weapons in his car while with a 15-year-old girl. Nabavi pleaded no contest to possession of a controlled substance and received probation. He later obtained his psychology license in 2006 under specific terms and conditions. He opened Resolutions Living in 2013 after working at another rehabilitation center.

Page Six previously confirmed that Gerber, who had a documented history of substance abuse and mental health issues, was admitted to Resolutions Living the day before his death. Sources indicated that Gerber appeared to be "visibly under the influence" at the time of his admission.
