Public health attorneys offer a balanced approach to public health law by crafting policies that are defensible, enforceable, and protect population health while considering the perspectives of community members.
Long-term care facilities and nursing homes are facing challenging times. Between being short-staffed, COVID mitigation strategy implementation, and vaccine mandates to name a few, we recognize how important it is to maintain communication, provide education and support, as efficiently as possible.
Local health department (LHD) immunization programs have been working hard to ensure COVID-19 vaccines are available to all people in their communities. NACCHO spoke with two LHDs in Minnesota—Goodhue County Health and Human Services and Polk County Public Health— about how they have reached priority populations in their areas. Their strategies and approaches can help other LHDs do the same.
In 2021, NACCHO and NCHH worked with teams in Boston, Cleveland, and Milwaukee and developed Stories from the Field highlighting the lead work being done in each of these communities as well has how they adjust with the COVID-19 Response.
Michigan's Genesee County Health Department provided five drive-through flu/immunization clinics this past fall to residents in surrounding cities in the county.
In May 2020, NACCHO conducted a brief survey to assess local health departments' (LHDs) HIV self-testing capacity and challenges. This is Part 3 in our 'Stories from the Field' series highlighting LHD approaches to implementing self-testing models into practice.
