Consumer Protection 

The Sequoyah County Health Department's Consumer Protection Division offers a wide array of services. Sanitarians conduct routine inspections of licensed establishments over which the Health Department has jurisdiction such as:

• retail food service establishments
• school kitchens
• hotels/motels
• public bathing places (pools & spas)
• barber shops

At the request of Department of Human Services, sanitarians inspect the food operation of daycare centers and accompany Long Term Care inspectors to inspect the food service operation in nursing centers.

Food safety training for food handler permits is offered at the Health Department three times per month:

• morning 
• afternoon
• early evening

Time and personnel permitting, food safety training will be provided at your facility.

Public Bathing Place (pool and spa) operator training is offered annually at the Health Department.

In addition to inspections of licensed establishments, consumer protection is responsible to investigate animal bites to prevent the possible spread of rabies.
