“Down the drain” doesn’t mean “gone.” Many wastewater treatment plants aren’t designed to routinely remove pharmaceuticals, so traces can travel downstream into rivers and streams.

The easiest way to safely deal with leftover prescription medication is to drop it off for disposal at a local LaMoure County pharmacy or use an at-home safe disposal option available FREE from LaMoure County Public Health. Contact us today to get your at-home disposal kit.

We had a great turnout last night in Kulm! Every school in our county plays a role in keeping students safe and supported. LaMoure county is teaming up to prevent substance abuse and help our kids stay above the influence of drugs, alcohol, and to***co. Contact LaMoure County Public Health to receive any of the free prevention resources we had available last night. We'll do it all again on January 27 when the LLM and EKM boys face off in Kulm! See you then!

A resource table will be out before and during the games - stop and grab some resources to help the ones you love stay above the influence.

Looks calm, feels dependent.
Ni****ne can create a quick sense of relief, but as it wears off, cravings and tension return—often stronger—pulling you into another dose. Over time, that up-and-down cycle can keep your baseline stress higher, not lower.
Contact LaMoure County Public Health or call 1-800-NDQUITS for help quitting ni****ne.

🪪A fake ID may seem harmless to teens trying to fit in, but in North Dakota it can lead to consequences that affect their education and future opportunities.

If your home uses a septic system, flushing leftover meds can send drug chemicals into your tank, then into soil and groundwater over time. That’s a problem for private wells and our shared water resources—safe disposal is a simple way to protect what we drink.

All4One Voluntary Recall
ISSUE

Evenflo is voluntarily recalling certain models of the All4One 4-in-1 convertible car seat manufactured between January 2022 and June 2024 that were sold in the United States and Canada. The safety and well-being of children and families who trust our products is our highest priority, and we are taking this step out of an abundance of caution.

During testing, we found that when the seat is used rear-facing, the seat may shift from one recline position to another. No injuries have been reported related to this condition, which does not negatively impact protection for a child secured in the car seat. Parents and caregivers may continue to use the car seat, including in rear-facing mode. However, when the seat is used rear-facing, it is prudent to take care to prevent any passenger from inserting their fingers into the recline mechanism.

Looks calm, feels dependent.
After a short time without ni****ne, your brain starts craving it, which can feel like irritability, restlessness, or anxiety. Using ni****ne makes those feelings fade briefly, so it seems calming—but it’s really just taking the edge off withdrawal.
Contact LaMoure County Public Health or call 1-800-NDQUITS for help quitting ni****ne.
