 Today I think is I hope will be a historic event. I know it's an important event where the hospital here is embarking upon a campaign to Way into this opioid crisis. It's been going on for years and I will not again catch my words There's a lot of suboxone clinics out there They're not they're not the cure. There's so many so many people overdosing on suboxone They take the product they take so much of it to resell so it's created its own black market It's just another opioid for opioid. This product with Vivitrol is an inhibitor. It's an antagonist It will and I know you've talked to some of the people that's been in the program for more than a year Sharing with you what it's done for their lives and if we just reach a few more like that I think that's successful. I think we need to reach many many more. We all like anything start one step at a time Whenever they enter into the lab, I explain to them that we're going to be doing it you're in drug screen and I try to make the Situation very comfortable for the recipient I just explain to them what we're going to do. I try to stay positive with them Just make it a comfortable experience for them. It really touches my heart because I really want to see our area just Come clean and I've had family members that we've dealt with it with our family members and Anything that I can do to give them some kind of words of encouragement Or anything I want to I really want to help these people. I really do Well, I'm really happy that the hospital has decided to go with this program and like I said earlier It's not just for people that are under any condom and Involvement with the criminal system in any way. This is this is for anybody in the community that's struggling with an addiction Just about every family you run to or just about every family nowadays has someone in the family That's struggling with it. So I think a lot of times we get caused people just don't know where to go for help They just need to know what resources are out there And like I said before it's not a cookie cutter It's probably not for everyone, but they can give it a shot to see if it would work Like I said, it's open for the community They can call the hospital or they can call Williams the family care and you know Just try to talk to them about it a little bit and see if it is something that could be you know Work for them or work for someone in their family You know, this is just a step in our direction to help the community to offer something that may may bring change You know, it's opioid free. There's no withdrawal You know in 28 days if the person doesn't come right then to get the shot There's no withdrawal. There's no opioid contained in injection at all But addiction has touched my family to an extent and I know what it's like to be disappointed worried scared Upset the feelings of hopelessness And I'm excited to see change when I see people come in and they're excited Hey, I did this today.
