01 Blood Lead Testing

Childhood Blood Lead Exposure Prevention

The Ocean County Health Department works in conjunction with local physicians and environmental inspectors to identify children with elevated blood lead levels and to prevent and control lead exposure where the child resides.

Exposure Prevention Program works to prevent and control lead exposure by providing:

  • Case identification
  • Medical case management
  • Environmental interventions
  • Education and counseling

In accordance with applicable regulations and standards of performance, these services are ongoing through the duration of the child’s blood lead elevation. Call 732 -341-9700 ext. 7239 for more information about any of our services.
