Amanda Brennan, Public Health Education Coordinator/Opioid Educator from the Dutchess County Department of Behavioral and Community Health gives a community Narcan training. If you have an expired kit, you can bring it with you and get an updated one. As part of the training, participants receive a naloxone kit. Narcan is a prescription medicine that blocks the effects of opioids and reverses an overdose. If given to a person who has not taken opioids, it will not have any effect on him or her, since there is no opioid overdose to reverse. The Department of Behavioral and Community Health offers a wide array of services and programs to become a Healthy Dutchess for our Residents, Visitors, and Businesses in Dutchess County. Contact the library to register. Happens in the East Room.
