Anybody have more information about it?
To promote safe and healthy housing, the Department of Health is developing the Lead and Healthy Homes Program. Implementation of this program is anticipated to begin in July 2013. The purpose of the Lead and Healthy Homes Program is to reduce hospitalizations, injuries, illnesses, or deaths from preventable home health or safety risks. This program aims to address multiple hazards in homes and prevent diseases and/or injuries that result from housing-related hazards by:
conducting comprehensive home assessments to identify potential hazards;
providing education and interventions to prevent health or safety problems before negative outcomes occur;
coordinating follow-up medical care in the event that health conditions are identified;
establishing or strengthening local partnerships to reduce health and safety risks in homes;
collaborating with appropriate enforcement agencies to enforce existing regulations that address healthy housing issues.
