The Vernon County Board of Health on May 9 approved a memorandum of understanding with MacIntosh Memorial Library to transition the 'Stuff the Bus' program, authorizing the partnership on a motion from David Eggen that Duane Koons seconded.
The board also reviewed and approved a policy and procedure for a Community Wellness Program that will offer monthly cholesterol, glucose and blood-pressure screening on the second Thursday of each month; Martha Olson moved to approve the policy, Paul Wilson seconded and the motion passed.
Health Officer Amy Kleiber announced the department secured a car-seat grant from the Department of Transportation for $4,000 with a required local match of $1,000. Megan Rahr said she will attend an opioid steering-committee conference on May 16 as part of ongoing committee development. Staff reported they will meet monthly to complete strategic planning documents by Dec. 31, 2023.
The minutes record these program approvals and grant awards but do not specify implementation dates for the car-seat program beyond the grant award.
