IN ANY EMERGENCY, PLEASE DIAL 911
Unfortunately, the opioid epidemic in this country does not seem to be slowing down, and so many lives are being destroyed by addiction. Opiates are prescribed to relieve severe pain, and they have the potential to be extremely addictive if misused. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, on average, 115 Americans die every day from an opioid overdose.
To help combat this epidemic, the City of North Charleston has partnered with Charleston County’s Department of Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Services (DAODAS), more commonly known as Charleston Center, to provide free Narcan training on a monthly basis throughout the City. Narcan, also known as naloxone HCl, is an FDA approved nasal spray that counteracts the life-threatening effects of opioid overdose, and it is often used in emergency settings. Once the life is saved, it is everyone’s goal that the long-term recovery begins.
To attend one of the City’s free Narcan training classes, please contact Lieutenant Matt Hughes at mhughes@northcharleston.org.

Did you know:
All seven species of sea turtles are listed as threatened or endangered, four of which are found in South Carolina: loggerhead, Kemp’s ridley, green, and leatherback.
The Sea Turtle Care Center aids sick and injured sea turtles in partnership with the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR).
When a sea turtle is found stranded or injured, SCDNR brings the animal to the Sea Turtle Care Center for treatment.
Sea turtles arrive at the Care Center suffering from a variety of ailments:
The incredible staff veterinarians diagnose each turtle and work with Care Center and volunteers to provide treatments and rehabilitative care. Patients are given IV fluids, antibiotics, vitamins, and other medications. Based on the sea turtle’s condition, a variety of procedures may be performed, such as x-rays, CT scans, or ultrasounds.
Rehabilitated sea turtles are released home in hopes that they will become reproductive members of the sea turtle population.
McNair Center for Sea Turtle Conservation and Research serves as the Aquarium’s in-house research facility specializing in sea turtle knowledge. For the benefit of researchers, and sea turtles, all over the world, we share what we’ve learned from 21 years of patient injuries and illnesses and present it to the scientific community.
The Zucker Family Sea Turtle Recovery area in the Aquarium is open to all guests and it makes the real-life rehabilitation of sick and injured sea turtles visible to every guest.
Interactive screens allow guests to read each current patient’s story and learn about the rehabilitation process.
