Operation Medicine Cabinet

The 24th semi-annual Operation Medicine Cabinet drug take-back event at Dosher Memorial Hospital is scheduled for Thursday (4/6) from 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM. Local residents are invited to drop off unwanted and expired prescription medications at the hospital front entrance, where law enforcement then takes what is collected for safe incineration. One of the conveniences of this event is that it is designed so that you can “drive through and drop off,” without having to leave your car. At Dosher’s last drug drop in October 2022, over 800 local households discarded more than 15,000 expired or unwanted narcotic pills and nearly 2,300 milliliters of narcotic liquids.
