Community Memorial Hospital offers Drug Take Back program

Local residents can dispose of unwanted pharmaceuticals at the 24 hour, seven day a week kiosk located in Community Memorial Hospital. This kiosk location does not accept aerosols, medical sharps, mercury thermometers, batteries, medical equipment, supplies or devices or hazardous chemicals. For disposal of these, items contact local household hazardous control waste officials.
     The Drug Take Back Pilot Program sponsored by the New York State Department of Conservation (DEC) offers residents convenient locations to dispose of leftover and expired medications -- just one part of a comprehensive strategy to reduce the impact from unwanted drugs on public health and the environment.
