Pinal County Seeks San Tan Valley Site for Free Naloxone Kiosk Network

Pinal County Public Health is looking for a location to install a free naloxone kiosk in the San Tan Valley area, the county told the Pinal County Board of Supervisors. The machine would join a planned network of 10 public health kiosks the county is developing. Kiosks already operate in Coolidge, Eloy, Maricopa, Oracle, San Manuel and Florence, with additional locations under development. Along with naloxone (Narcan), the kiosks distribute flu kits and COVID-19/RSV home tests to the public at no cost. Until a San Tan Valley-area kiosk is installed, naloxone is available at the Pinal County Public Health clinic at 36235 N. Gantzel Road in San Tan Valley. For operators, Arizona’s county-funded kiosk networks show how public health is becoming a steady placement and service category alongside traditional vending routes.
