The Christian County Health Department is gearing up for their open house at their new location at 730 North Pawnee Street in Taylorville. This appears Saturday, June 15th, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. The open house will not only allow local citizens to see the new rooms and laboratories, but it will also serve as a day of education and action in areas like car seat safety, immunizations and blood pressure checks, and activities for the kids.

Joe Torres, Environmental Health Director, Diana Voiles, Director of Nursing, and Lynn Zuber, Director of Administrative Services are a few pieces of the team at the CC Health Department and they came by the WTIM Morning Show to describe some of the features of the day.

Zuber and Voiles describe what they are looking forward to on Saturday and mentioned that this is a great way to get familiar with the health department team, a team that the group says works very well together.

Mosquito and tic season is upon us and Torres says he will have demonstrations of the ways they capture mosquitoes and tics to take to the lab and test for West Nile Virus and Lime Disease.
