Cedar County Public Health provides lead screenings free of charge to children under 6 years of age. If a child has an elevated blood lead level, a representative from CCPH and a representative from CCE&Z perform an inspection of the child's home to look for the cause/causes of the elevated blood lead level. Areas that are found to have lead based paint are required to be fixed and maintained to ensure children cannot access the paint in the future. After repairs have been made, a representative from CCPH & CCE&Z do a visual inspection and if that passes, dust wipe sampling to ensure the paint has been properly taken care of.
