Putnam County has dealt with its share of emergency situations that required immediate response. We continue to plan and conduct drills with our partners so that we are prepared to respond to all emergencies. The Putnam County Health Department plans guide our response to public health emergencies.
The Emergency Response Plan defines responsibilities of the health department when responding to any emergency. A redacted copy of the Emergency Response Plan for Putnam County is available for review through this link If you wish to review the plan in its entirety, please call PCHD to make an appointment with the Emergency Preparedness Coordinator.
