NARCAN Administration Training

There were about 50 Upstate employees and guests who attended to learn more about the opioid epidemic, and learned how to administer Naloxone in case of an overdose. Participants received two nasal sprayers that could potentially save someone’s life.

The Narcan Training Event was held on Monday, February 26, 2018 at 5pm at SUNY Upstate Medical University New Academic Building room 4414A.

Your chapter of UUP along with the UUP Chapter Action Project sponsored this event to raise awareness about the Opioid Overdose Epidemic and learn a life-saving skill: Narcan Administration. Narcan (naloxone) is the opioid reversal medication for use in an opioid overdose emergency.

Get Your Negotiations Updates Here

Dear UUP Members:

We are committed to communicating with the membership about contract negotiations–to the greatest extent possible–as negotiations proceed. This is your contract, and we want members to be informed, involved, and active throughout the process.

To facilitate this communication, we have created a new Members-Only web portal. Here is the link to the portal: https://uuphost.org/myuup/MembersOnly/check.php. A link to the portal is also accessible via the UUP website; click on the “UUP Negotiations Information” box in the top right corner of the page.

Conceptual proposals from UUP and the state, exchanged July 15 during our first bargaining session with the State, are now posted in the new Members-Only section.

The Members-Only section is password-protected; use the last five digits of your employee ID as your unique password to enter the site. Your employee ID can be found in the center of your pay stub, listed as “NYS EMPLID”.

Please do not publicly share or post information found in the Members-Only section; this information is confidential and intended for UUP members only.

In Solidarity,
Fred
