It's Earth Science Week! (October 11–17)

This year's national theme is "Critical Minerals for a Thriving Society" — a good reminder that earth science isn't just rocks and minerals, it's also the groundwater, soil, and water systems our Environmental Health team works to protect every day right here in Highland County.

The HCHD Environmental Health Division oversees:
• Household sewage treatment
• Private water systems
• Recreational vehicle parks and campgrounds
• Manufactured home parks
• Public swimming pools
• Schools
• Nuisance complaints
• Tattoo and body piercing facilities
• Food service

Thank you for all you do for Highland County! We appreciate you, Anna, Chris, Phil, , Dustin, Andrew, and Shirley!

This year, an estimated 382,640 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in the United States. Behind that number are mothers, daughters, sisters, friends, and neighbors, including here in Highland County.

The good news: when diagnosed in an early, localized stage, the 5-year relative survival rate for breast cancer is over 99%. Regular screening helps find breast cancer early, when it is easier to treat.

💗 Talk with your healthcare provider about when to start screening and how often is right for you.
💗 Know your family history and share it with your provider.
💗 Encourage the women in your life to schedule their mammogram.

Make plans to attend our Brake 4 Breakfast DRIVE-THRU event on October 22, 2026!

💚 Today is World Mental Health Day 💚

Mental health matters just as much as physical health. Taking care of your mind is a vital part of your overall well-being. Remember—it’s okay to ask for help, take a break, and check in on a friend.

The Highland County Health Department encourages everyone to take a moment today to focus on self-care, show kindness to others, and support mental health awareness in our community. Together, we can break the stigma and build a healthier, more compassionate Highland County. 🌿✨

Measles Confirmed in Pike County

Our neighbors at the Pike County Health Department have confirmed a case of measles. Their post has the details below.

Measles spreads very easily, and the MMR vaccine is the best protection. If you need an immunization or have questions about measles, give us a call at 937-393-1941. We are happy to help.

Protecting yourself helps protect the people around you, especially babies too young to be vaccinated. Let's keep Highland County healthy!

🌷 Did you know? Breast cancer doesn't always show symptoms, but knowing what to look for matters. 🌷

Signs and symptoms of breast cancer can include:
🔸 A new lump or thickening in or near the breast or underarm
🔸 A change in the size or shape of the breast
🔸 Dimpling or puckering of the breast skin
🔸 A ni**le turned inward
🔸 Ni**le discharge
🔸 Scaly, red, or swollen skin on the breast, ni**le, or ar**la

These changes don't always mean cancer, but they should always be checked out. If you notice something new, reach out to your healthcare provider. Regular screening is also key, since breast cancer can be present before any symptoms appear.

🚗☕ Join HCHD and Highland District Hospital for Brake 4 Breakfast on October 22, 2026 to learn more about breast health and screening resources!
