DEADLY BATCH ALERTS
A text alerts network has been established in Ohio for early warnings about overdose surges and deadly batches of drugs in Northwest Ohio.
For example, on November 4, three overdoses in 24 hours were reported in Hancock County.
Text “SOAR” to 419-670-7627 to receive Overdose Surge and Deadly Batch Alerts when there is a spike in overdoses or dangerous drugs are found in your area.
Daylight Savings ends in the wee hours of November 6. Whether you change your clocks before you go to bed on Saturday or when you get up on Sunday, you’ll need to move them back one hour.

What is a certified tumor registrar (CTR)? Do they register tumors? In a sense, yes. Certified tumor registrars work in a cancer registry, with a primary responsibility to create a data file for all patients with a new cancer diagnosis. Information recorded includes demographics, medical history, tumor-specific characteristics, stage, treatment and patient outcomes.
