Collecting & Analyzing

The Huron County Health Unit is always monitoring the health of the Huron County population. We do local research as well as use information provided by the province and government of Canada.

We analyze the data to help understand the health needs of Huron County residents. We look for things like what health conditions people have and what are the risk factors for disease or injury.

About the Statistics

These Huron County Health Reports give information on specific health issues. The reports are prepared by the health unit's Epidemiologist, who is an expert in the study of the health of populations.

The reports focus on statistics and results of the research. There are many factors that shape the health of people and communities. These include income, education, employment and social supports. These are called the social determinants of health and are addressed in these reports.

The reports will be useful to government agencies and community organizations involved with the health and well-being of Huron County residents. Members of the public will also find the reports about the health of the community interesting.
