National Poison Prevention Week

Aloha ‘Ohana,

Did you know that every year, Americans report more than 2 million cases of poisoning? This week during National Poison Prevention Week, all of us at KHC would like to thank all those who staff our Nation’s poison control centers for working around the clock to offer people in need life-saving guidance and care. 

We urge everyone in our community to learn how to prevent and respond to poison emergencies.

The national toll-free Poison Help line is 1-800-222-1222. Calling will connect you to our local poison center. The local poison center is your resource for help in a poisoning emergency. When you call, you will speak with a specially trained nurse, pharmacist, or doctor at your local poison center.
