We participated in a fantastic round table meeting in Pasco County today with organizations committed to helping those seeking, and being in recovery. Human Potential prides itself in assisting Mental Health and Detox facilities throughout Florida with compassionate and caring nursing support.
Today in Pasco, Recovery Champions from the Sheriff's Office, Fire ans Rescue, Baycare Hospital, The CORE program, and Pasco County Health Department met with the Recovery Community at the monthly Round Table event.
Homeless support services, MAT supportive housing (shout out to for expanding their admission criteria to serve this population) Narcan distribution and overdose fatality numbers were discussed. Number of overdoses and number of fatalities were down in February. Fatality rate remains at 20% on average. As well as advocacy efforts to remove the level 2 background screening for peers, and adding a recovery voice to the opioid settlement board.
Thank you for all the programs and people who regularly show up and make this forum an effective change agent throughout Pasco County.
