Welcome to MindSet 2023 with Tom McNulty, M.S.
Without a doubt, Fentanyl is today's most frightening, sneaky, hidden killer that has taken the lives of 110,000 people last year. It is hidden in opioids, cocaine, marijuana, and street drugs that get laced with Fentanyl such as Xanax - is anything off limits? No!
Unless you get your medicine from pharmacies that use child-proof caps (not guaranteed) or sealed containers, you cannot be 100% certain. Recently, Fentanyl has been presented as colored gummies or tablets that can look like chewable vitamins to attract younger users. These dangerous times require that current and accurate information be disseminated to parents, teachers, law enforcement, religious leaders, EMTs, urgent care/emergency care/primary care, campus security, and the public. This is exactly the mission of The Episodes Project and its Spotlight on the Community program - training and coaching frontline stakeholders at rapid assessment, referral, and follow-up. Many EMTs and police officers indicate that, over the last several years, they are on more overdose calls than heart attacks, accidents, strokes, and other life-threatening calls.
This episode of MindSet 2023 gives you very hard realities of what happens when a loved one ingests Fentanyl and resources to follow to learn more.
MindSet 2023 is brought to you by DENT Neurologic Institute, Spotlight on Hope, Inc., and The Episodes Project.
