Monitoring health status and
understanding health issues is the first
of the health department's Essential
Services.
Epidemiologists monitor disease
conditions, gather, analyze and
interpret data on a daily basis, which
allows the formation of informed
policies and public health practice.
This in turn is relied upon by
stakeholders, policy makers and the
community at large in understanding
community health. Setting policies that
promote healthy living can only be done
when all health factors are understood.
