Be Prepared
None of us can predict when the next emergency situation will hit
A Public Health Emergency can occur when significant outbreaks of disease or bioterrorism attacks put our health at risk. Uncas Health District works together with Federal, State, and local partners to protect the public against epidemics, the spread of disease, respond to disasters, and assist in recovery.
The District works to provide information and education to encourage individuals and agencies to better prepare themselves, their families and their homes for emergencies.
For more information about what Uncas Health District is doing to prepare for an event in our community, please visit our What We Do page. For more information about what you can do to prepare yourself, your family, your business and your community for an event, please visit our What You Should Do page.
