THE BAY STATE PUBLIC HEALTH TRAINING HUB
The Office of Local and Regional Health promotes and supports the development of inter-municipal shared service agreements (cross-jurisdictional sharing) that contribute to improvements in local public health capacity. By pooling resources, functions, and expertise, a consortium of cities and towns, especially the smaller communities, may improve compliance with the performance standards and expand the public health services they offer residents within their community.

The Bay State Public Health Training Hub encompasses twenty-six cities and towns united between five public health community partnerships, along with two non-PHE funded communities. (See Map)

The Fall LPHIT Food Class was a HUGE Success!
A BIG thank you is owed to New Bedford Health Department for allowing us the space to host this amazing event, Boston University School of Public Health for putting the class together under the guidance of the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, more specifically Jessica Ferreira & Mark Carleo of the Food Protection Program!
Shout out to Tom Nerney of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for coming all the way down to present to our Cohort, ensuring we keep our minds on the future of food safety.
Congratulations to our fellow Hub Trainer Terrence Kennedy of the Northeast Public Health Training Hub for an excellent presentation & convincing a group of established health agents that it is ok to define rodent droppings as "lustrous" when the observation applies!
Last but certainly never least another GIANT Thanks goes out to our food safety subject matter expert Pamela Ross-Kung of Safe Food Management for not leaving one single question unanswered!
(In the attached photo you see Pamela addressing our Cohort as there was not a single food safety conundrum she had not been eager to dissect with our peers)
