2020 EMS Listening Tour 

The Kentucky Office of Rural Health will host a statewide Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Listening Tour in February and March, making stops in eight communities across the Commonwealth to better gauge the current state of rural EMS services.

Tour sessions will allow EMS professionals, hospital and clinic administrators and staff, health department staff, state and local government officials, community members and other interested parties the opportunity to share their insights about the strengths, challenges and needs of Kentucky’s EMS agencies.
