Naloxone OneBox Installation at FSC
Sent on behalf of FSC Prevention Specialist Kimberly Liao
To the Campus Community:
With the safety of our students among our highest priorities, we have installed Naloxone Emergency Boxes (OneBox) across campus. Naloxone is a life-saving medication that can reverse the effects
of an opioid overdose. It works quickly by blocking the effects of opioids and restoring
normal breathing within minutes. It is also safe to use, even if opioids are not present.
Emergency boxes have been placed near CPR/AED kits in the following locations:
Dewey Hall
Orchard Hall
Alumni Hall
Campus Center
Quintyne Hall
Knapp Hall
Greenley Library
Laffin Hall
Nold Athletic Complex
Lupton Hall
Hale Hall
School of Business
Gleeson Hall
Whitman Hall
View this campus map to locate these boxes quickly in an emergency.
While training is not required to use Naloxone, any member of the campus community
who wants to learn more can attend a training session on recognizing an overdose and
administering Naloxone correctly. The next training will be held on Wednesday, March
26, at 2:00 p.m. in Quintyne 100. RSVP here if you wish to attend this training. For information about more upcoming training
sessions, please contact the Health and Wellness Center at 934-420-2009 or wellness@farmingdale.edu.
This initiative was made possible through the dedication of FSC's Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention Team (ADAPT) and was funded by Farmingdale’s Student Government Association. Their commitment to campus safety has helped bring this vital resource to our community.
For more information about Naloxone OneBox and what to do if you suspect an opioid
overdose, visit the Substance Education, Prevention, and Outreach webpage. If you have questions about this information or would like additional harm reduction
information, please contact Prevention Specialist Kimberly Liao at chongkj@farmingdale.edu.
Thank you for being part of a community that values health, safety, and looking out
for one another.
