OPIOID OVERDOSE PREVENTION WORKSHOP - Thursday, Feb 27th at noon!

By Nancy Reynolds, February 25, 2020

The Opioid Overdose Prevention Training Workshop is a skill-building program presented by staff from Southern Tier AIDS Program (STAP). The workshop is designed to help you in recognizing and preventing fatal opioid overdoses. Participants will learn basic information about opioid drugs, harm reduction, signs of overdose, and how to administer naloxone in the case of an medical emergency. Participants who complete the training will receive an identification card that they can use to obtain a free naloxone kit at the STAP location in downtown Ithaca.

Join us for one of two workshops scheduled this semester:

Thursday, Feb 27th, noon - 1 pm, Taughannock Falls Room

Tuesday, March 31st, 1 - 2pm, Ithaca Falls Room. 

The workshops are open to all IC students, faculty and staff. Seats will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. No RSVP is necessary.

Sponsored by the Center for Health Promotion, the IC Alcohol and Other Drug Prevention Team, and STAP (Southern Tier AIDS Program).
