TRU information session aims to decrease Kamloops fentanyl-related overdose deaths
KAMLOOPS — With Kamloops seeing the fifth-highest rate of fentanyl-related overdose deaths in the province in the first two months of this year, it’s clear there’s still a long way to go when it comes to fighting the epidemic.
The city’s latest information session is scheduled to take place Thursday night at TRU.
The event, titled ‘What the Fentanyl?’ will feature a variety of medical health workers, as well drug rehabilitation staff and grief counsellors, all focused on spreading awareness about the deadly effects of fentanyl and preventative measures available.
