Assemblyman Durso, Mayor Adams and the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Office Held a Free Narcan Training Program in Babylon Village

New York State Assemblyman Michael Durso (R-Massapequa Park) in partnership with Babylon Village Mayor Mary Adams and the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Office recently held a free Narcan Training at Babylon Village Hall.

Attendees learned the signs of an opiate overdose, overdose risk factors, recognizing and responding to an overdose, and the administration of Naloxone (Narcan). Each received a free Narcan kit at the end of the presentation.

“Narcan training programs are an essential part of our effort to combat the increase in fentanyl and opioid overdoses and deaths that are plaguing communities throughout Long Island and New York State,” said Durso. “I want to thank all the residents for attending this life-saving training. And a special thank you to Mayor Adams and the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Office for providing this vital service.”
