LEGISLATOR WALKER INVITES ALL TO ATTEND A NARCAN OVERDOSE PREVENTION WORKSHOP

 

Monday, October 15, 2018 • 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM

Farmingdale Senior High School

150 Lincoln St., Farmingdale, NY 11735

 

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 Rose Marie Walker invites all residents to attend this important forum to learn what to do in case of an overdose and 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 Walker’s office:

516-571-6217   -   rosewalker@nassaucountyny.gov
