[Important Information for Students] There is still time to register for Narcan training!

[Marco Ayala-Perez]

September is* Emergency Preparedness Month, *a nationwide effort to
encourage everyone to be ready before emergencies happen. Our goal for the
campus community is to help students, faculty, and staff build a culture of
preparedness by having an emergency plan, keeping an emergency supply kit,
and knowing how to take action –including how to respond if someone is
experiencing an overdose.

*The Student Health & Counseling Center and the Office of Emergency
Management *care deeply for the health and well-being of SUNY Plattsburgh’s
students, faculty and staff.  We recognize that there are Cardinals who are
impacted by the unprecedented opioid and overdose epidemic in our country
and New York State (NYS). We also recognize the growing danger of fentanyl
and xylazine in drugs such as cocaine, MDMA/ecstasy/Molly and counterfeit
pills.

Narcan can reverse the effects of a drug overdose from fentanyl, heroin and
prescription opioids, and has saved countless lives.  The Alliance for
Positive Health and the Student Health and Counseling Center are sponsoring
a free Narcan Training Class on September 20th from 11am. to 12 pm. at the
Cardinal Lounge at the ACC. This training is open to students, faculty and
staff. With participation you will receive a free Narcan kit (while
supplies last). To register click  <http://goog_844371399/>here

Additionally, you are invited to attend the Emergency Preparedness Day
Events that are a chance to connect directly with local emergency response
and support agencies—right here on campus. Learn valuable safety skills,
ask questions, and take part in interactive demonstrations that could make
all the difference in an emergency.


Event Highlights:


- Simulated Dorm Room Burn – See firsthand how quickly a fire can spread.
- Fire Extinguisher Training – Practice putting out a fire with expert
guidance.
- Smoke-Filled Corridor Exercise – Test your ability to navigate safely
through smoke.
- Aerial Rescue Demonstration – Watch a live rescue outside Kehoe.
- Free Stewart's Ice Cream (while supplies last!)

If you have any questions, or would like to make an appointment with one of
our counseling or medical providers, please reach out to the Student Health
& Counseling Center at healthcenter at platsburgh.edu or 518-564-2187. We are
open M-F, 8 AM - 4 PM.
