Your input enables us to understand your concerns and to better meet your needs in our planning. Our Administrator, Timothy Quinn, can be reached at 973-326-7360 to address any questions or issues that may arise.

Wastewater treatment facilities are not designed to remove pharmaceutical compounds, and they may end up in your local waterways, which may eventually be found in drinking water. Properly disposing of unwanted and expired prescriptions and over-the-counter medications in the trash promotes a healthy aquatic environment and prevents accidental poisoning and intentional abuse. 1. Keep medicine in original container. Mark out personal information on prescription bottles. 2. Mix liquid medicine with undesirable substances like coffee grinds, cat litter, or dirt. Dilute pills with water, and then add coffee grinds, cat litter, or dirt. 3. Place bottles in an opaque container, such as a yogurt container, and secure lid, or wrap in a dark-colored plastic bag. 4. Hide the container in the trash. Do not recycle. Do NOT dispose of medication down the drain or toilet. Do NOT keep excess or expired medication around the home. Improper disposal in your trash allows others to divert the substance and consume medication that was not prescribed to them. Prevent water pollution, Promote a healthy environment, and Properly dispose of your unneeded and expired medication. Visit www.americanmedicinechest.com for a disposal location near you.
