“As we continue to remain mostly in our homes to do our best to keep ourselves, our families, and each other safe from the Coronavirus, it is important to know how to keep our homes as safe and healthy as possible,” Addabbo said. “The information in this educational workshop can help prevent an accident in the home that could have been easily avoided. I want to thank Empire BlueCross BlueShield and NYC Poison Control for partnering on this important event. If we have a successful turnout, we will be able to bring more of these great virtual workshops to the community. I encourage everyone to come and attend this webinar!”
