Freeholder Suzanne Lagay, the Board’s liaison for the Health Division, joined Department of Public Safety and Health Services Director George Wagner, Health Division Head and County Entomologist Tadhgh Rainey, County Health Officer Karen DeMarco, specialists in Public Health Nursing, Environmental Health, Health Education, Infectious Disease, and the Hazardous Materials Response and Emergency Management unit in a discussion of the wide scope of County health services with the Commissioner.
Freeholder Lagay stated, “We welcome Commissioner Elnahal’s visit and his willingness to meet with County Health units throughout the state.
