The State Board of Health shares a vision and commitment to assuring that all Nevada residents have the highest attainable level of individual and community health. Chapter 439.150(1) of the Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) states, "The state board of health is hereby declared to be supreme in all non-administrative health matters. It has general supervision over all matters... relating to the preservation of the health and lives of citizens of the state..." The Board is dedicated to insuring that both residents and visitors to our state can be active in an environment where good sanitation is practiced and there is a minimum risk of contracting disease or experiencing disabling unintentional injury.
