Gateway to Prevention and Recovery continued their work to reduce the number of opioid overdoses in Pottawatomie County by placing a medication lock box in the Maud Police Department.
According to David Holland, SPF PFS Coordinator – Region 14 for Gateway to Prevention and Recovery, funding for the lock box came from a $10,000 grant from SSM Health St. Anthony Hospital - Shawnee. This box provides a safe place to dispose of any unused or expired medications, Holland said. We really appreciate the city of Maud for partnering with us to help win the battle against the opioid crisis.
Maud Police Department is one of several places in the county that have installed medical lock boxes.
