Congratulations to the LCCA

Contratulations to the LCCA for receiving the 2012 Hometown Health Hero Award from the Michigan Department of Public Health. The LCCA received the award for its efforts to reduce prescription drug misuse by creating the Big Red Barrels. Check out the photos from the award ceremony in Lansing!

Safely dispose of your unused or outdated medications- look for the Big Red Barrel at these locations:

• Livingston County Jail
• Michigan State Police- Brighton Post
• Fowlerville Police Department
• Pinckney Police Department
• Hamburg Police Department 

No questions will be asked. The medication will be disposed in an EPA approved way.

Note- Needles or syringes are not accepted. Go to your local pharmacy and purchase a sharps container. These typically cost $6.00. Put your sharps in the container and return them to: St. Joseph Mercy Livingston Hospital Pharmacy; HIV Aids Resource Center (HARC); or Livingston County Solid Waste Management. For additional information about proper needle disposal, visit the Livingston County website
