Kentucky's Department for Public Health maintains a Harm Reduction Service Programs resource page and a dashboard of services offered through local health departments.
The state's naloxone locator supports searches by city, ZIP code or county. Use the program's own contact details to check current access before traveling.
The Kentucky Harm Reduction Service Programs page links to the local health department dashboard. It describes syringe services, overdose prevention education and connections to testing and treatment; ask each program which services it provides.
The Kentucky naloxone locator includes filters for community organizations, health departments, recovery centers, and kiosks or vending machines. Check the selected location's hours and availability directly.
Kentucky's public health resource page also links to FindHelpNowKY, recovery housing resources and mental health resources for people seeking additional support.

Kentucky's Office of Drug Control Policy coordinates the state's overdose prevention efforts; naloxone training is offered through local health departments and the state's KY TRAIN platform rather than a single public video.
These are general steps. Always follow the instructions included with your specific naloxone product.
