Mission Statement:
The mission of the Grant
County Health Department is to utilize, manage, and use our financial
resources, personnel, and physical plant in such a manner as to deliver
meaningful, comprehensive, preventive health care to all citizens of the
area. The Health Department will make every effort to publicize the
availability of our extensive health and environmental services through
all local news media and personal contact with school officials and
community organizations. The health status of the community will be
assessed to determine needs.
The Health Department
will decrease morbidity and mortality through education and preventive
health services. All direct care services will be maintained and expanded
as needed to assure the provision of preventive health care for all
members of the community.
At all times the Grant County Health Department will
operate under and within guidelines set forth by the Board of Health and
the State Health Department.
The Grant County Health Department is
supported by federal, state, and county funding through various contracts
and grants. Health services are provided to persons regardless of
race, color, sex, religion, national origin, or handicap.
