The Conversation Project is a public engagement initiative with a goal to have every person’s wishes for end-of-life care expressed and respected.

Did you know that the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services has made tremendous efforts to combat the opioid epidemic and reduce overdoses and deaths? As a state, we participate in PDMP; the prescription drug monitoring program as well as many other mitigation strategies. DHSS also provides free overdose education, warning signs, naloxone administration training, prescription drug take-back programs and more at https://health.mo.gov/living/families/more/. Keeping naloxone on hand can be lifesaving, especially if you have any opioids in your home, if any friends or family members take opioids, or if anyone who visits you takes opioids. You can get naloxone without a prescription at your pharmacy, and there are many local programs that provide free naloxone to those who cannot afford it at https://getmissourinaloxone.com/

The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services provides free radon test kits for those who cannot afford them, but you can also purchase kits from your local hardware store. They also cover testing for all public schools and commercial child care centers. You can reach out to your children's schools and daycares as well as your employer or any other physical building where you spend a lot of time to see when their facilities were last tested for radon.
After having many patients with unexplained respiratory symptoms, we purchased a high quality digital radon detector that we loan out to our patients for free and have found multiple homes with elevated levels requiring mitigation.
