Communicable Disease Reporting
Ohio Administrative Code (Rules 3703-3-01 through 3701-3-31 of the Ohio Administrative Code), mandates all laboratories, physicians, schools, daycares, health professionals and hospitals are to report suspected and confirmed cases of certain communicable disease to the local health department. Communicable Disease Staff is responsible to review and investigate emerging and reportable infectious or communicable diseases within Mahoning County.
Healthcare providers, laboratories, and the public help improve the community’s health when they report cases of disease to the health department. These reports give health officials a chance to find out where the disease came from and stop its spread before other people get sick. All information reported to the health department is confidential and will not be shared.
