Northern New England Poison Center

The Northern New England Poison Center is a wonderful resource.  You can call the center for advice 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.   1-800-222-1222

Some examples of calls I have made to NNE Poison Control:

• Help with identifying berries a student ate from the back field.
• Help with identifying unmarked medication brought to school.
• Recommended treatment of a child who bit into an ice pack.
