International Overdose Awareness Day

August 28, 2024 News -- KRJB-KRJM-KKCQ 0

Saturday is International Overdose Awareness Day.  It’s a day meant to show that overdose deaths can be prevented and to acknowledge those who have died without any stigma.  Kathy Nevins, a nurse practitioner with Essentia Health, says opioid overdoses are a problem…but so are overdoses of synthetic opioids.

Kathy Nevins will speak more about International Overdose Awareness Day Saturday morning on Access Health.  You can hear Access Health at 8am Saturday on KRJB and KRJM…and at 8:30am Saturday on KKCQ.
