Our vision is to be a collaborative agent for change in health problems that our community faces and to become a health/wellness provider and resource for all in our community. Environmental Health The environment directly affects our health status and plays a major role in our quality of life, years of healthy life lived, and health disparities. Health department staff permits and inspects food facilities, water wells, geothermal wells and septic systems, inspects state-licensed tanning and body art facilities, tracks West Nile Virus activity and provides Food Handlers and Certified Food Sanitation Manager Classes and consultations to ensure that our community has the healthiest environment possible. See our website for forms and class information. Learn more about our Environmental Health Programs. Disease Prevention Infectious diseases continue to pose a threat to public health. The health department works several ways to prevent disease in our community. The communicable disease program provides investigation and follow-up on reportable communicable diseases. Our immunization program offers a wide-array of both adult and child vaccinations. Not only can we bill most insurance companies, we also offer the federal Vaccines for Children (VFC) program for uninsured or underinsured children. There is no cost for these vaccines, and only a small administrative fee per visit, which is billable to Medicaid. Our public health nurses also draw blood to check lead levels in children and can tell you what vaccinations are recommended for travel abroad. Very low cost laboratory services for most blood tests are offered every week. An order from your medical provider
