Franklin County Public Health
Franklin County Board of Health was established in October 1919 as a result of the Great Influenza, the most devastating pandemic flu on record. The authority of any health department in the State of Ohio is granted by law and is specifically detailed in the Ohio Revised Code. In 2010, the agency's name was changed to Franklin County Public Health (FCPH) to more accurately reflect all the services performed. Our Board is still known as the Franklin County Board of Health. A five-member Board appoints a Health Commissioner who oversees the day-to-day operation of the department. Franklin County Public Health (FCPH) has a staff of approximately 90 people and operates with a budget of about $7.5 million. As defined by Ohio law, FCPH provides service to all of the townships and villages in the county. In addition, 14 suburban cities contract with us to serve as their health department and provide comprehensive public health services to their residents. Today we serve a population of 500,000+ in a growing suburban area, through multiple community-oriented programs.
