Open House Event Invites Community to Learn about Programs and Services of Barnstable County
Barnstable County Department of Health and Environment staff participated in a County-wide open house that show-cased the many diverse programs and services offered by Barnstable County.
The Public Health Nursing Division held a health fair and provided wellness and health screenings including blood pressure, glucose, cholesterol and HDL testing, skin analysis, and bone density screenings.
The Shared Services Division provided information on ticks and tick-bite prevention.
The Water Quality Laboratory distributed routine well water testing kits, show-cased their water quality analysis offerings, and provided information about the Bathing Beach Monitoring Program.
The Wastewater Division provided information on the Massachusetts Alternative Septic System Test Center (MASSTC), the Septic Utility Program (SUP), the Innovative/Alternative Tracking Program, and AquiFund.
All of these offerings were in addition to a variety of other tables staffed by Barnstable County departments, as well as Barnstable County History Spotlight presentations and hands-on fire extinguisher demonstrations with the fire department.
Thank you to all of the community members who came to see us yesterday!
