(Robinson) – Crawford Memorial Hospital and the Robinson Police Department will allow the public to dispose of outdated and unwanted medication this month. They will be offering a “Drug Take Back.” According to CMH Director of Marketing and Public Relations, Becky Ruppel, this will mark the 10th year the two groups have teamed up for the “Drug Take Back Day.” She says estimates indicate that they have collected in the neighborhood of 4,500 pounds of drugs to date. The “Drug Take Back” will be held on April 30th from 10-2 at the East Entrance of CMH under the canopy. Ruppel says every kind of medicine including over-the-counter, prescription, liquid, pill, and ointment will be taken. However, syringes will not be accepted.
