7 Introduction This survey is the latest in a series of surveys of North Carolina health departments which, since 1984, have provided a count of health department employees by occupational groups, a summary of essential public health services, and assessments of other topics, such as bilingual health initiatives and the use of information technology in health departments. All surveys have been oriented to the state s fiscal year: beginning July 1 and ending June 30 of the subsequent year. The current survey was administered in the spring of 2017, and covers the fiscal year (FY2017). All of North Carolina s 100 counties are represented in this survey. A total of 85 surveys were returned, consisting of 79 single-county health department respondents and six multi-county district health department respondents. The district health departments included are: (1) Alleghany, Ashe and Watauga counties (Appalachian District); (2) Granville and Vance counties; (3) Martin, Tyrrell and Washington counties; (4) Rutherford, Polk and McDowell counties; (5) Avery, Mitchell and Yancey counties (Toe River Health District); and (6) Albemarle Regional Health District (consisting of Bertie, Camden, Chowan, Currituck, Gates, Pasquotank and Perquimans counties). In this report, we summarize the data from the FY2017 survey, and we present comparisons with prior years of the survey where possible. For the section of the survey on staffing, we use the same definitions that have been used in the past to calculate the number of full time equivalent (FTE) employees in order to ensure consistency across reports. Throughout this report, health department respondents are referred to as health departments, health departments/health districts or LHDs (Local Health Departments). Changes to the Survey Instrument The Information Technology (IT) section of the survey was eliminated for FY2017. Minor additions to the survey were made to reflect current health services categories and occupational categories. 1

9 Staffing (Section A) Local Health Department Occupations and FTEs Table 1 presents data regarding Health Department staffing for FY2017. Data are presented for each occupational group, and include the total number of full-time positions, the total hours worked by part-time staff per average week, the annual number of contract staff hours worked, as well as the total FTEs both including and excluding contract staff. FTEs excluding contract were calculated as the number of full-time funded positions, plus the number of part-time hours divided by 40 (one work week). FTEs including contract were calculated as the number of FTEs (as calculated above) plus the number of annual contract hours reported divided by Total FTEs In FY2017, there were 8,308 full-time equivalent employees in county health departments (not including contract personnel), which is below the FY2013 FTE total by 353 employees (Figure 1). The number of FTEs employed in North Carolina health departments has decreased 14 percent since reaching a peak in FY ,000 Figure 1 Full-time Equivalent Employees, FY1989 FY2017 (Not Including Contract Personnel) 10,000 8,000 6,000 5,839 6,336 7,026 8,179 8,236 8,595 9,480 8,705 9,676 9,567 8,769 8,661 8,308 4,000 2, * Note: 2003, 2007, 2009, 2011, 2013 and 2017 were the only years with a 100 percent survey response rate. Survey was not administered in
10 Recruiting Difficulties The FY2017 survey also asked if health departments/districts had experienced difficulties recruiting for specific occupational groups, as presented in Table 1. The occupational groups that health departments reported having the most difficulties recruiting for included Nurse Practitioners (42%), Clinical RNs (35%), Environmental Health positions (34%), Enhanced Role RNs (25%) and Nutritionists (26%). Trends in FTEs for Specific Occupational Groups In Figure 2, trends from FY1989 FY2017 are shown for three of the largest professional groups working in North Carolina health departments: nurses (LPNs and RNs), management support staff and environmental health specialists. Within the nursing profession, the total number of FTE nurses increased by 10 percent from FY1989 to FY2017 (194 FTEs). The number of environmental health specialist positions increased by 20 percent (120 FTEs) during this time period. In addition, administration/management support staff positions also increased by a total of 245 positions (15%) from FY1989 to FY2017. From FY2013 to FY2017, nursing and administrative staff both decreased, while the number of environmental health specialist FTEs increased slightly (3%). 3,000 Figure 2 Trends in Staffing for Specific Occupational Categories, FY1989-FY2017 (Not Including Contract Personnel) FTE Employees 2,750 2,500 2,250 2,000 1,750 1,500 1,250 1, Fiscal Year Total Nursing Administration/Management Support Staff Environmental Health Specialist 4
11 Occupational Composition of LHDs Figure 3 shows the distribution of all public health occupations in North Carolina health departments for FY2017. The nursing profession made up the largest percentage of personnel with 28 percent, followed closely by administrative and management support staff with 26 percent. The remaining specified occupations aides, environmental health specialists, social workers, nutritionists and health educators accounted for approximately 26 percent of all health department personnel. Other occupational categories comprised an additional 20 percent of health department staff. The FY2017 occupational distribution is similar to the results reported in the FY2013 health department survey, with nurses representing 28 percent and support staff representing 26 percent of the health department personnel. Trends in FTEs by County Table 2 shows the change in the number of FTEs and percentage change from FY2013 to FY2017. Overall, 56 of 85 health departments/health districts (66%) reported that they lost FTE positions since the last survey was conducted. Another 28 percent (n=24) health departments reported that they gained FTE positions during this time period. Between FY2013 and FY2017, there was no change in the reported number of FTEs for five health departments (they lost or gained one or fewer positions during this time period).

13 Public Health Services (Section B) According to North Carolina laws: The Public Health Laws of North Carolina establish categories of essential public health services that are to be made available and accessible to all citizens of the State [G.S. 130A-1.1(b)]. Table 3 presents essential services established by this law as well as other services deemed to be essential to the public health of North Carolina citizens. For each service, counties were asked to indicate if the service was provided in their health department or health district. This table also presents a comparison of results from the FY2013 and FY2017 health department surveys, to provide a picture of how things have changed during this time period. Health Support Services The majority of health departments/health districts in North Carolina reported that they provide registration of vital events (89%). Vital records and statistics are maintained in 91 percent of all health departments (n=77). Nearly all health departments indicated that they conduct communicable disease surveillance (98%), offer laboratory services (98%) and perform health assessments for reportable diseases (97%). In addition, most health departments reported that they are engaged in community health education (95%), emergency preparedness response planning (94%) and perform comprehensive community health assessment (89%). However, significantly fewer reported that their health department/district engaged in chronic disease surveillance (61%), health planning (66%), or health code development and enforcement (59%). While 72 percent (n=61) health departments reported offering public health nurse pharmacy dispensing, less than half (35%) reported offering other pharmacy services. Nearly half of health departments indicated that they provided school nursing services (47%). The health support service provided least frequently was pesticide poisoning investigation, with only 14 percent of health departments reporting that they offered this service. The health support services with the largest declines from FY2013 to FY2017 were in pesticide poisoning (-25%) and behavioral risk assessment (-22%). Additionally, there were declines in health departments reporting that they offered other pharmacy services (-17%). The health support service categories with substantial increases were health education (+36%), prenatal care (+34%), child health (+24%) and public health nurse pharmacy dispensing (+11%). Environmental Health Nearly all county health departments report offering water sanitation and safety for public swimming pools (98%) and private water supply (95%). Most health departments also offer restaurant and lodging inspections (97%) and on-site sewage and wastewater disposal services (94%). Lead abatement services are provided by 72 percent (n=61) of the health districts surveyed. Regarding pest management, 25 health departments (29%) report that they provide mosquito control and nine health departments (11%) provide rodent control. Tick control is provided by 6 percent of all health departments (n=5) and bedding control is offered in 14 health departments (17%). text continued on page 12 7

18 From FY2013 to FY2017, North Carolina health departments report that no environmental health service categories increased. The largest declines in environmental health services were in rodent control (-55%) and tick control (-55%). Bedding control and milk sanitation services also declined by more than 20 percent during this time period. Personal Health Personal health services comprise the largest category of services provided at local health departments. Nearly half of all health departments (48%) reported offering pediatric primary care and adult primary care services (45%).

Less than 30 percent of health departments offered early detection and referral for kidney disease (28%) and arthritis (20%). From FY2013 to FY2017, most chronic disease early detection and referral 12
19 categories experienced decreases. Kidney disease was the only category with a reported increase in services (+9.1%). The number of health departments reporting that they offered early detection and referral for cancer, arthritis and cholesterol all decreased by more than 10 percent. For every disease category, the provision of Patient Education services for these same chronic diseases was higher than that of early detection and referral. Fewer than half (35%) of health departments reported that they offer chronic disease monitoring and treatment services in FY2017 this is lower than figures reported in FY2013 (-19%). Provision of Behavioral Health services was not commonly reported by health departments in FY2017. Only 14 health departments reported offering behavioral health services for children (17%) and 12 health departments offered behavioral health services to adults (14.1%). Health behavior intervention was reported by 14 percent of health departments (n=12). From FY2013 to FY2017, child behavioral health services decreased slightly (-7%). In contrast, adult behavioral health services increased substantially from two health departments offering this service in FY2013 to 12 health departments in FY2017. Regarding Health Promotion efforts, the majority of health departments reported that they provide tobacco cessation counseling (88%) and nutrition counseling (86%).

20 (60%). Less than half of health departments report providing community-based testing in partnership with Community Based Organizations (42%) and 31 percent reported providing case management. In FY2017, six additional health departments reported offering community-based testing in partnership with Community Based Organizations, which represented a 20 percent increase from the number reported in FY2013. The number of health departments reporting that they provide opt-out testing declined by 19 percent from FY2013 to FY2017. Nearly all health departments (97%) reported offering Hepatitis A and B immunizations in FY2017 which was comparable to FY2013 figures. Under Rabies Control services, most health departments indicate that they received reports from physicians of persons bitten by or exposed to animals capable of transmitting rabies (95%). Most health departments also report that they coordinate administration of rabies post-exposure prophylaxis if necessary for those bitten (89%) or exposed (87%). Over half of health departments reported that they identify the biting animal and submit it for rabies testing and coordinate at least one annual rabies clinic in the county for dogs, cats and ferrets. However, only 23 health departments report that they canvas the county to search for unvaccinated dogs, cats or ferrets, and appropriately administer all animal sheltering functions (27%), and only 38 reported that they administer the voluntary Certified Rabies Vaccinator Program (45%).

21 Bilingual Health Initiatives (Section C) Non-English Information and Education Material in LHDs All health departments reported that they provide educational and informational materials in other languages, with all reporting that they offer materials in Spanish (n=85). In addition to Spanish, a small number of health departments also report that they provide educational material in other languages such as Arabic, Hmong and Mandarin. Table 4 presents the number and percentage of health departments that report needing non-english material by health department service area. Over half of health departments report using and not needing any additional non-english material for Family Planning (64%), Maternal Health (58%), Communicable Disease (55%) and Child Health (53%) services. In addition, nearly half of health departments state that they use non-english material for Patient Education (49%) and Health Promotion (47%). Slightly more than a third of health departments report that they use and do not need materials for Chronic Disease Control (39%) and Dental Health (37%). Examining the need for non-english education/information across all service types, 32 to 42 percent of all health departments indicated that they use and need or have a need for bilingual materials. Bilingual Staffing and Services Seventy-six health departments (89%) reported having bilingual staff and nine health departments (11%) reported that they did not have bilingual staff. Spanish was the most frequent language provided by bilingual staff; with a few health departments also reporting staff speaking Hmong, Mandarin, Arabic and other languages.
