Sent a vaccination notice to my home saying children under five can now get the Covid "Vaccine". I can't believe you are still trying to peddle the falsehood that this shot is a vaccine. If it is a "vaccine" why are people with this shot still getting ill. You might as well put paid for by Pfizer on your website.

Amazing place. The NKY Dentures grant is a lifesaver for me. Emily Rombach is the absolute most beautiful human being on this planet and someone I like to call my guardian Angel!! If it weren’t for her, I seriously don’t think I could be on this journey to getting my dentures if it weren’t for her and all of her help!!! This journey has been a painful, stressful process to say the least but at the same time it’s been exciting and all super worth it because in the end I know I will have my smile back and I won’t ever have to worry about another toothache again! 😆 I have my temporary set right now and they’re beautiful! I can’t wait to get my permanent set and be done with the whole process, but there is no one else I would rather have apart of this journey with me than With Emily!! Thank you so much Emily and staff at NKY Health Department! I don’t think words or actions could ever explain or begin to compare to all you’ve done for me. And I will forever be grateful. ❤️✨ I can’t wait to cross that finish line and be a spokesperson for you guys to say, NKY HEALTH DEPARTMENT CARES FOR THEIR PEOPLE!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I cannot say enough amazing things about the Northern Kentucky Health Department in Florence and their Ryan White program. They have already made a huge impact on my life in a short amount of time. I moved from Lexington to Covington in December after leaving a long-term, dangerous domestic violence situation. I had to leave overnight and start completely over. For the first time in my adult life, I was on my own and honestly didn’t know what to do or where to turn. In the past, I wouldn’t ask for help because I didn’t feel like I deserved it. This time, I chose to reach out—and I’m so glad I did. Even though I’ve only been working with the health department for about two months, they have shown up for me in ways I didn’t expect. They’ve helped coordinate Uber rides to appointments, connected me with support groups, and provided assistance with utilities and rent when I needed it most. They also got me connected with St. Vincent de Paul for vouchers for furniture and clothing, which helped me start rebuilding my life. They helped me find an amazing HIV doctor at UC, and for someone who is still learning to accept their diagnosis, that kind of compassionate, judgment-free care means everything. The support group meetings that Diane hosts every 3rd Thursday of the month have also been incredibly helpful. It’s a space where I feel understood, supported, and not alone. I also want to give a special thank you to: * Tami, my case manager, who has been there for me every step of the way * Carlos Lopez, for helping with rental assistance * Diane, for peer support and the support groups that truly make a difference * Ashley, for helping with my Duke Energy bill * Tammie Wade, my connector, who helped me get my food stamps fixed * Amanda, for leading such an amazing team I don’t know what tomorrow will bring, but I do know that right now, I’m starting to get back on my feet—and that’s because of the support I’ve received here. Had I not met these people and reached out for help, I truly believe I would have ended up going back to my abuser. One of the biggest challenges I’ve faced is financial abuse—I haven’t worked in years due to my health, COVID, and everything I went through. Without the stability and support they’ve helped provide; I don’t think I would have had another option. They didn’t just help me with services—they helped give me a real chance to move forward safely. They treat people with dignity, compassion, and respect, no matter what they’re going through. If you’re struggling or need help, this is a place that truly cares. Thank you for helping me begin again. ❤️
