Noble County Health Department
The Noble County Health Department (NCHD) has been in existence since 1920, and while there have been many changes in public health since then, the mission remains the same: “To provide quality services that promote wellness, prevent disease and plan a healthy future for our community.” As an Ohio political subdivision, we serve over 14,645 Noble County residents and tenfold that number in our multi-county programs, the largest of which reaches 19 counties in Southeastern Ohio.
These comprehensive programs require determined fiscal, human, leadership and management resources. The staff at of the NCHD have extensive grant experience, a continued capacity to adapt to change and an expertise in program implementation. In summary, the NCHD has a proven history and a passion to effectively partner, manage and implement the public health programs that will benefit our citizens now and into the future.
