The Clay County Community Paramedicine Program comprises paramedics from Clay County Fire Rescue, a Certified Peer Support Specialist, and the Clay County Naloxone Coordinator.

Our goal is to engage with our residents who might benefit from services to help improve their quality of life, overcome addiction to opioids or other substances, and connect with available resources to maximize their efforts to live healthy, independent lives. Our caring professionals will assess each unique situation to determine how we can best assist, and our services are entirely confidential. Every Community Paramedicine Program team member is committed to the best outcome for every patient. We aim to connect with patients in their current state, actively engage with them, and attentively listen to their needs.
