What is Public Health
Public Health Departments are responsible for creating and maintaining conditions that keep people healthy. Every community has a unique "public health system". Our goals in Umatilla County Public Health are to understand the specific health issues, investigate health problems and threats, prevent and or minimize communicable disease outbreaks caused by unsafe food, water, chronic diseases, environmental hazards, injuries, and risky health behaviors. This department works actively in the development of response plans in the event of a public health emergency. We work closely with local responders and the state. We have partnerships with public and private health care providers, community and government agencies that all are working toward the betterment of our community. The public health clinics in Umatilla County provide a wide variety of services. All services are confidential and no one will be denied services for inability to pay.

Community Health Improvement Plan
Spotlight on Health
We advise the public to follow the CDC
recommendations to protect themselves and others. These measures include:
- Washing your hands often with soap and water, especially after coughing or sneezing.
- Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or shirt sleeve, not your hand, when coughing or sneezing and discard tissue immediately in a waste container.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. This will help prevent the spread of germs.
- Avoid close contact with people who are ill.
- If you are ill stay home and avoid exposing others to your illness. Do contact your doctor if you have any concerns.
- Get a flu shot.
