A representative from the Macomb County Health Department’s Environmental Health Division will be on hand to dispose of unwanted medication. Pills must be removed from bottles and placed in unmarked containers such as a clear plastic bag. Only non-narcotic medications will be accepted.

The following free services also will be offered to seniors at this site: Macomb County Discount Cards, 9-1-1 cell phones, blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose tests and vision screening.
