Your description is exactly what happened to my DD's friend from her old school. He was in her ceramics class and now he is dead because his friends freaked out and didn't get him help when he passed out from a heroin overdose.

The night before Kramer was pronounced dead, detectives told KTLA that Nernberg was partying with Kramer at a park and at some point, Kramer became unconscious and was in need of medical attention.
Authorities say that's when Nernberg put Kramer into his car and started driving around, calling his friends and asked what he should do.
Eventually, Nernberg took Kramer to his house, dragged his body inside and left him there until the following morning where he was found dead.
That is just heartbreaking. The very least they could have done is left him outside the ER.
One shot of Narcan and that poor guy may still be living.
So many times when someone overdoses people try and put ice down their pants or anything frozen. They toss you in a freezing shower. They try everything except getting you where you need to be.
I'm so sorry about your DD's old High School friend.
