Emergency Preparedness

The CCCHD prides itself in responding to public health emergencies in a timely and efficient fashion. By working with other area agencies and elected officials, the CCCHD is able to coordinate effective responses to common area epidemics, such as flu outbreaks, the West Nile virus, etc. By taking part in mock emergencies and emergency training exercises, the CCCHD is prepared for all types of emergencies.
