Healthy Neighborhood Program
The Healthy Neighborhoods Program of the Niagara County Department of Health
is a grant-funded program designed to improve the environmental health and
safety of individuals living in target areas.
Home visits are conducted to assess health and safety concerns.
A checklist is reviewed with residents, and safety items (fuses, smoke detectors, batteries for smoke detectors, safety plugs, cleaning supplies, switch and outlet cover plates, and various other items) are provided as needed.
Carbon monoxide levels in the home can be checked during the visit.
Community participation
In
addition to the Healthy Neighborhoods Program staff, several others in the
community assist the program. Residents from Niagara Falls Memorial Medical
Center's Family Practice, nursing students from local colleges including
Niagara County Community College, participants from Experience Works Inc.,
Niagara University students, and others have been a great assist to our program.
Location
Niagara County's Healthy Neighborhoods Program is located in the heart of the City of Niagara Falls, NY.
