Community Health Assessments

Community Health Assessments (CHA), also known as a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA), help us determine what the current health needs are in Columbiana County. The assessment informs our department on the current health status of the county, and also helps identify existing key health needs and issues. The identification of these issues is done systematically thorough data collection and analysis. We use this health information to formulate a Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP), which is a long term plan that addresses problems found during the community health assessment.

Radon

Free radon test kits from the Ohio Department of Health: ohio.radon.com

Introduction

This provides information from the Ohio Department of Health (ODH) on radon and how to protect your family’s health.

ODH, the U.S. Surgeon General and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommend every Ohio home be tested for radon.

Radon Is…

  • A naturally occurring radioactive gas
  • Odorless, colorless and tasteless
  • Comes from the breakdown of uranium found in rocks and soil

Importance of Radon
Breathing air with elevated level of radon over a period of time can cause damage to lung tissue and cells which increases the risk of lung cancer. According to the U.S. Surgeon General, radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer among smokers and the leading cause of lung cancer among non-smokers.

How Does Radon Enter a Home?
Radon, because it is a gas, it is able to move through spaces in the soil and enter a home through the following:

  • Dirt floor
  • Crawl spaces
  • Unsealed sumps
  • Cracks in walls

Ohio homes tend to operate as a vacuum (suction) to pull soil gases, including radon, into the lower level of a structure especially during the season when you heat your home.

Does Your Home Have a Radon Problem?
A radon test is the only way to find out if your home has elevated levels of radon. Performing a radon test is easy, inexpensive and can be done privately. Test results from nearby homes cannot be relied upon to predict the radon level in another home because every home is unique in its construction, soil and maintenance.

Radon Protection
Fix your home if the radon level is 4pCi/LpicoCuries per Liter or more. If your radon test indicates that your home has elevated levels of radon, have a radon mitigation system installed by an ODH licensed mitigation contractor to reduce radon level. The Indoor Radon Program at ODH can provide homeowners with a list of licensed contractors in their area.

Rabies, Ticks and Mosquitos

Rabies Control

The Columbiana County Health District continues to be involved in taking a proactive approach in the prevention of rabies in Columbiana County.

The department hosts two rabies clinics each year, one in the spring and one in the fall. Aerial rabies baiting will continue, handled by the US Department of Agriculture. ODH will continue to test suspect animals for rabies, although now it is at the owner's expense. Every effort should be taken to avoid any unfamiliar or wild animals, especially raccoons, skunks and foxes as they are known to be higher risk rabies carriers.
