Welcome to the website for the Initial Report on Public Health.
The government of Ontario is committed to renewing and revitalizing Ontario's Public Health System. As part of this renewal, the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care is developing a performance management system for public health that will address local and provincial performance, accountability and sustainability.
As a first step towards the new performance management system, the Public Health Division has produced the Initial Report on Public Health. This report provides a snapshot of Ontario's public health sector; it provides an overview of the scope of public health and profiles the local operational context of public health program and service delivery. It is a beginning to understanding the current work of public health and will inform the development of a performance management system for public health.
While this report is not intended as a performance report, it does provide a status update on a range of indicators related to public health practice. The indicators in this report do not link directly with requirements or outcomes in the Ontario Public Health Standards.
