EL SEGUNDO, Calif. — The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health has launched 51 community health stations to provide residents with free lifesaving overdose prevention and public health supplies. The self-serve vending machines will provide underserved communities across LA County with easy access to lifesaving resources.

The stations provide the following products:

• COVID-19 self-test kit: One box containing two tests
• Naloxone, a life-saving medication that can reverse an opioid overdose: One carton containing two single-use devices in blister packages and instructions for use
• Fentanyl test strip kit: One FTS kit containing five individually packaged strips and instructions for use
• External condoms: One package holding five external condoms and five non-spermicidal lubricants
• Internal condoms: One individually wrapped internal condom and instructions for use

"COVID-19 self-tests, naloxone, fentanyl test strips, and condoms allow individuals to take actions that protect themselves and others in the community," said Dr. Barbara Ferrer, county Department of Public Health director. "Having free public health supplies available to residents seven days a week through the self-service Community Health Stations makes it easier to access important products that support health and save lives."
