[ARCHIVED] LEGISLATOR FERRETTI TO HOST NARCAN TRAINING/OVERDOSE PREVENTION WORKSHOP

Legislator Ferretti To Host Narcan Training-Overdose Prevention Workshop

Tuesday, May 1, 2018 • 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM

Levittown Public Library – Community Room

1 Bluegrass Ln., Levittown, NY 11756

 

You can save the life of a loved one from overdose!

 

Every day, at least one Long Islander dies from an opiate overdose. And those are only the ones we know of – the ones directly caused by heroin or prescription painkillers such as Percoset or Oxycodone.  If you don’t think it can happen to someone you care about, please think again.  Overdoses can happen to anyone.

Legislator John R. Ferretti is sponsoring this event to teach residents what to do in case of an overdose and to help them learn how to administer the life-saving, overdose-reversal agent called Naloxone, or “NARCAN.”  NARCAN is the antidote to an opioid overdose and all attendees will receive a free kit.

Seating is limited and reservations are required  

To reserve your seat and free NARCAN kit, please contact Legislator Ferretti’s office:

516-571-6215   -   jferretti@nassaucountyny.gov
