2007 District Priorities

2007 Health Priorities:

The Kitsap County Health District and Board of Health have established the following four Health Priorities for 2007. The 2007 Health Priorities are population-based health needs identified using our current health indicators. These priorities will help guide the Health District’s activities and budget in 2007. All Health District employees should convey the 2007 Health Priorities to our public health clients and partners and address these priorities in their daily work.

The 2007 Health Priorities are:

  1. Optimize community behavioral health, including the prevention of suicide and substance abuse.

  2. Promote healthy lifestyles including addressing obesity, physical activity, and tobacco cessation.
  3. Prevent unintended injuries.
  4. Ensure our water resources are free from harmful contamination and are of adequate quantity and quality for healthful living.

2007 ADMINISTRATIVE PRIORITIES:

The 2007 Administrative Priorities were established by the Health District’s Executive Management Team to assure an effective, responsive, and strategic Health District.

The 2007 Administrative Priorities are:

  1. Complete work to ensure that our managers are effective and have good management skills.
  2. Continue implementation of the Standard of Health for Kitsap Families.

  3. Continue a solid commitment to customer service.

  4. Continue to strengthen our understanding of health indicators for Community and Environmental Health, and improve program evaluation activities.

  5. Support statewide efforts to establish stable long-term funding for public health.

  6. Build three months of operational cash reserves to improve the agency's financial stability.

  7. Create a Human Resources database system to implement electronic timecards and leave accounting, bi-weekly payroll system, and track staff time in an emergency situation.
