We have an exciting program for the August ASSP meeting.  Our speaker will be Dr. Rais Vohra.  Dr. Vohra is an Emergency Room physician, a medical director for the Central Valley Poison Control Center, and the Fresno County Health Officer.  Dr. Vohra will be providing an up-to-date perspective on opioid use and abuse in our community.  He will focus on the use of Narcan – the overdose reversal medication commonly used by first responders.  This life saving medication is now available over the counter and many companies are providing it in first aid kits.

This is a great opportunity to hear from a medical professional on the front lines of the opioid epidemic.  As safety professionals we need to be up to date on this important topic.  You will not want to miss Dr. Vohra’s engaging presentation on this important topic. 

This meeting will take place on August 29 and begin at 11:30am. Check out the event page to register.
