Schenectady, New York: Drug abuse trends

Schenectady, New York has been grappling with significant drug abuse trends, particularly concerning opioids. In July 2022, the county was designated as a High-Intensity Drug Trafficking Area due to the alarming rise in opioid overdose fatalities recorded in 2020 and 2021.

Local authorities issued a warning about a potentially dangerous batch of narcotics that resulted in the suspected deaths of four individuals within a single week. Although the specific substances involved were not yet confirmed through toxicology tests, the presence of fentanyl was highlighted. Previously associated primarily with heroin, fentanyl has now been found in other opiates as well as cocaine and crack, which can catch long-term users by surprise.

Efforts are being made in Schenectady to train individuals to administer Narcan. Narcan is a medication that can reverse the deadly effects of opioids and save lives. These initiatives aim to empower the community and equip them with the necessary tools to help fight opioid overdoses.

Health Street understands the importance of drug screening in promoting a safe and drug-free environment. We offer comprehensive pre-employment drug screening services in Schenectady, with convenient walk-in clinics located throughout the city.
