Denominator

Methodology

From the 2008 National Profile of Local Health Departments (LHD):

[NUMERATOR:]

A number of sets of competencies related to public health practice have been developed. Indicate:

  1. ALL of the sets of competencies with which you are familiar, and
  2. If and how your LHD has used each set.

[One of the three sets of competencies is "Core competencies for public health workers (Council on Linkages)."]

[One of the four choices on how the LHD has used the set is "Preparing job descriptions."]

This objective currently does not measure use of core competencies in performance evaluations.
