Communicable disease surveillance is the most frequently provided service by local health departments as they are responsible for monitoring and controlling outbreaks of contagious diseases in the community. Adult immunizations and TB screenings may be offered, but are not as frequent as communicable disease surveillance. Food safety education may also be provided, but it is generally offered by other agencies such as the Department of Agriculture or the Food and Drug Administration.
