The Ida County Board of Health members are Judy Andresen, Bob Paulsrud, Dr. Carl Toben, Beth Ortner and Liz Hanshaw. |
Local boards of health are
responsible for public health in their jurisdiction. They support local public
health vision, mission, and advocacy and encourage community involvement in
setting public health priorities. Each
county is required to establish a five member local board of health with one
member being a physician licensed by the state of Iowa. The county board of supervisors appoints members to the local board.
