Environmental Health Protection
Environmental Health Protection Skip to main content About IDPH Environmental Health Protection Asbestos Abatement In the mid-1980s, newly enacted state and federal legislation required that schools be inspected for asbestos and that plans for its management be developed. The Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) staff reviews asbestos management plans for elementary and secondary school facilities and inspects abatement projects to ensure compliance with state and federal laws. More Integrated Pest Management (IPM) What is Integrated Pest Management (IPM)? Integrated Pest Management in schools and day care centers involves cooperation between school staff and pest control personnel (e.g., commercial pest management professionals or in-house staff). IPM uses a variety of non-chemical methods as well as pesticides, when needed, to reduce pest infestations to acceptable levels and to Lead Poisoning Prevention Lead poisoning, the number one environmental illness of children, is caused primarily by lead-based paint in older homes. While Illinois has made great progress in recent years, we maintain one of the highest rates in the nation for the number of children with elevated blood lead levels. The most common exposure to lead by children is through the ingestion of paint chips and Manufactured & Modular Homes/Mobile Structures The Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) regulates construction of modular homes and commercial mobile structures located in Illinois. Staff review plans for each model to be located in Illinois to ensure that these units meet minimum structural, mechanical, plumbing, electrical and energy conservation standards. About 1,300 modular homes and commercial mobile Migrant Labor The IDPH administers 2 programs that affect agricultural workers, one dealing with field sanitation and the other with migrant labor camps. The field sanitation program promotes the health and safety of agricultural workers by requiring that basic sanitary facilities be available to them. All farm operators who employ 10 or more agricultural workers must provide toilets, Non-Community Public Water Systems Non-community public water systems are facilities, such as schools, factories, restaurants, resorts, and churches, served by their own water supply (usually a well). These facilities are required to provide a safe and adequate supply of water under the federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). Non-community water systems serve either a transient or a non-transient population. A Plumbing Are you preparing to close or reopen your building or business? Did you know that your building's water quality may be impacted by changes in water use? Whether your building is closed, unoccupied, or less occupied due to COVID, vacation or any other reason, have a plan and flush away stagnant water to protect your water quality! Improper plumbing can result in the Private Sewage Disposal Malfunctioning or improperly constructed and maintained private sewage disposal systems can pose serious health hazards. The Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) regulates the installation of all private sewage disposal systems that have no surface discharge (such as septic tanks and seepage fields) as well as those that discharge treated effluent up to 1,500 gallons Private Water & Closed Loop Wells In the private water and closed loop systems program, the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) administers the licensing of water well and pump installation contractors and regulates the construction, modification and sealing of all water wells, with the exception of community water wells. In addition, the program administers the registration of closed loop well Structural Pest Control IDPH protects the public from improperly prepared and used pesticides and from groundwater contamination around commercial pesticide storage sites and promotes the concept of integrated pest management in schools. Illinois has approximately 750 licensed structural pest control business locations as well as 60 registered non-commercial (not-for-hire, in-house pest control) Swimming Facilities Swimming facilities have become standard features in hotels, motels, apartment complexes and subdivisions, as well as many parks and recreation areas. However, swimming can be hazardous due to the numerous diseases that may be transmitted by contaminated water and the dangers associated with diving accidents and falls on wet surfaces. Toxicology The Illinois Department of Public Health's Toxicology Program was created in 1986 to carry out the Department's responsibilities under the Environmental Toxicology Act. Vector Control & Surveillance Vectors are insects, ticks, rats, mice, birds and other animals that transmit disease-producing organisms to humans. To prevent the human disease and discomfort caused by these vectors, IDPH provides technical information to local health departments, governments, mosquito abatement programs and the public on methods to monitor and control them. IDPH also awards annual grants Wildfire Smoke Wildfires are becoming larger and more frequent in the United States and Canada, in part due to the influence of climate change. Breathing wildfire smoke can make anyone sick, but some people are at greater risk than others of experiencing health-related problems like heart and lung disease Youth Camps and Campgrounds State law requires the IDPH to annually inspect and license campgrounds in Illinois. Winter Weather Resources Weathering Winter Some people dread the thought of the thermometer dipping below the freezing mark. Others look forward to the first chill in the air, knowing it means the first snowfall and the holiday season are just around the corner. Snow and ice provide an ideal outdoor playground for children and adults, but also present hazards for those who need to drive or to take
Diseases & Conditions
Diseases & Conditions Skip to main content About IDPH Diseases and Conditions Infectious Diseases The Division of Infectious Diseases mission is to protect people from infectious diseases through disease surveillance, analysis, immunization, and education. The division is organized into the Communicable Diseases, HIV/AIDS, Sexually Transmitted Diseases, and Immunization sections. Several of these sections work together on Viral Hepatitis initiatives. Infectious Respiratory Disease Infectious diseases are caused by germs - viruses, bacteria, or other pathogenic microbes. Germs that can infect the respiratory system - lungs, throat, airways - can often be spread through mucus and saliva (also known as "respiratory secretions") expelled when a person coughs, sneezes, talks or laughs Cancer Cancer is a common disease, more common than many people realize. The National Cancer Institute estimates that 1 in 2 men in the United States has a lifetime risk of developing cancer; for women, the lifetime risk is 1 in 3. The number of people with cancer is increasing in most communities because more people are living to the age of greatest cancer occurrence. Arthritis What is arthritis? The term arthritis refers to about 120 different diseases that can affect the joints, muscles and other soft tissues. The three most common forms are osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis. Osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative joint disease, is the most common type of arthritis, affecting an estimated 21 million adults in this country. Diabetes Diabetes is a serious chronic disease that poses a major health problem. Nearly 30.3 million people in the United States (9.4% of the population) have diabetes. About one-third of these people do not know they have diabetes. Each year, 1.5 million new cases of diabetes are diagnosed. In Illinois, approximately 1.3 million (12.5% of the population) adults have diabetes, but Heart & Stroke Diseases of the Heart and Stroke: Illinois’ Leading Killers Heart disease and stroke are, respectively, the first and third leading causes of death, and also the major causes of disability in Illinois. In 2017 there were 25,393 deaths in Illinois due to heart disease and 6,021 deaths due to stroke. Deaths due heart disease and stroke combined (31,414) represent almost 29 Asthma What is asthma? Asthma is a condition that affects the airways. It makes it hard to breathe because the airways become swollen, produce too much mucus and the muscles around the airways tighten. Asthma can range from mild to severe and can be life threatening. It is recognized that in some families, inherited factors play a role in an individual's risk for asthma. If a parent, Diseases A-Z List An alphabetical listing of common diseases and conditions, both chronic and infectious, that affect the everyday lives of Illinois residents. Measles Measles is a serious, highly contagious disease caused by a virus. The virus is spread easily through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes or by direct contact with infected nose or throat secretions. The best protection against measles is vaccination. Tickborne Illnesses In the United States, ticks can spread bacteria, viruses, and parasites (pathogens) that cause human diseases. Ticks transmit pathogens that cause disease through the process of feeding. Reducing exposure to ticks is the best defense against tickborne diseases. Tick exposure can occur year-round, but ticks are most active during warmer months (April-September). If you find a tick attached to your skin, simply remove the tick as soon as possible. Many tickborne diseases can have similar signs and symptoms. If you develop a rash or fever within several days to weeks after removing a tick, see your doctor. HIV/AIDS HIV remains a serious infectious disease in the world and here in Illinois. The good news is that there has been a great advance in knowledge and the development of effective tools to prevent infections and to prolong and improve quality of life for persons living with HIV. These next few pages provide information that begins with HIV education, testing, care, and support Viral Hepatitis Hepatitis is defined as an inflammation of the liver. Hepatitis is commonly caused by a virus. The most common types are Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C. There are two other types, Hepatitis D and Hepatitis E, which are more common in other countries. To learn more about Hepatitis, see the Resources section. For data and statistics specific to Hepatitis, see IQuery Mpox Illinois MPV cases include all probable and confirmed cases.

Illinois Homelessness Mortality and Morbidity
Illinois Homelessness Mortality and Morbidity Skip to main content About IDPH Illinois Homelessness Mortality and Morbidity Publications In September 2021, Gov. JB Pritzker signed Executive Order 2021-21, to Fight Homelessness in Illinois. The order established the Illinois Interagency Task Force on Homelessness, a new interagency body for collaboration to prevent and end homelessness, a Community Advisory Council on Homelessness to provide community guidance to the work, the Illinois Office to Prevent and End Homelessness (OPEH) to support the interagency work, and a state homelessness chief to lead it. In July 2023, this Home Illinois structure was codified into law and funded with an initial FY24 budget of more than $200 million. The interagency work of Home Illinois is organized through the Home Illinois plan. Learn more about Home Illinois here Homelessness As A Public Health Issue To be healthy, all people need affordable, accessible, and safe housing. Across Illinois, many households struggle to afford housing and are forced to make hard choices, such as paying rent or a mortgage instead of buying food or medicine. Families are forced to stay in housing situations that are unsafe or overcrowded. Many households struggle to access any housing, resulting in experiences of homelessness. These burdens are not equally distributed. For example, due to longstanding patterns of structural inequity, Black Illinoisans are eight times more likely to experience homelessness than White Illinoisans. Health both affects and is affected by homelessness. Having a disability or otherwise struggling with health increases a family’s risk of homelessness, and experiencing homelessness is detrimental to a household’s physical and mental health. The reality is staggering. As the first report documents, Illinoisans experiencing homelessness die almost 18 years earlier than their housed counterparts. But this reality is not inevitable. Targeted investments in housing can potentially end homelessness across the state. The expansion of data-driven programs and policies, such as medical respite for people experiencing homelessness, harm reduction, and increased access to safe, accessible, low-barrier shelters, can mitigate the effects of homelessness on health. Publications One of the four pillars of the plan is working to close the mortality gap between people experiencing homelessness and Illinois’ general population. Recognizing a need to understand better the state of health of people experiencing homelessness to inform strategies to improve the population’s health, the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) and the University of Illinois Chicago School of Public Health partnered to produce Homelessness Mortality and Morbidity Reports. These reports utilize death records and hospitalization data to examine the effects of being unhoused or in unstable housing has on health. This work was shaped by the leadership and guidance of OPEH, a statewide office tasked with coordinating state agencies’ strategies to prevent and end homelessness. There are three documents released in each report round; the full report, the executive summary, and the statewide fact sheet which synthesizes the data into an infographic for quick data look up.

The Illinois Project for Local Assessment of Needs (IPLAN) is a community health assessment and planning process that is conducted every five years by local health jurisdictions in Illinois. Based on the Assessment Protocol for Excellence in Public Health (APEX-PH) model, IPLAN is grounded in the core functions of public health and addresses public health practice standards. The completion of IPLAN fulfills most of the requirements for Local Health Department certification under Illinois Administrative Code Section 600.400: Certified Local Health Department Code Public Health Practice Standards. The essential elements of IPLAN are: an organizational capacity assessment; a community health needs assessment; and a community health plan, focusing on a minimum of three priority health problems. IQuery - the next generation of IPLAN Data System IQuery previously known as the IPLAN data system, is a web-based data query system originally created in 2002 and recently refreshed in 2024 for collecting and disseminating Illinois public health data. IQuery is administered by the Illinois Department of Public Health. A primary goal of IQuery is to have the most up-to-date data possible in one easy-to-access repository for required analysis of health data to support certified local health departments in their IPLAN processes. Per Admin Codes 600.400.a.1. b., 600.400. a.c. and 600.410. a.2. The list of community health indicators published on the IQuery web site shall be utilized to structure the minimal content of the assessment. A local health department may use in its assessment IQuery data and additional data available that describes the health of its population, including natality, mortality, morbidity and risk factors for illness in its jurisdiction.

Epidemiology Skip to main content About IDPH Epidemiology Publications The Illinois Department of Public Health's Division of Epidemiologic Studies is responsible for developing and managing the Illinois Health and Hazardous Substances Registry (Illinois Health and Hazardous Substances Registry Act [410 ILCS 525/1 et seq.], enacted in September 1984). The registry’s goal is to develop and maintain a unified system for collecting and compiling statewide information on cancer incidence, adverse pregnancy outcomes, occupational diseases and hazardous exposures; for correlating and analyzing information on public health outcomes and hazardous substances; and for using this information in decision making and public health policy development. The division created three registries to collect the above information: the Illinois State Cancer Registry, the Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes Reporting System and the Occupational Disease Registry. All reports are geocoded to small census areas and assigned latitude and longitude coordinates for the Illinois Hazardous Substances Registry. Illinois State Cancer Registry (ISCR) The Illinois State Cancer Registry (ISCR) is the only population-based source for cancer incidence information in Illinois. Cancer cases are collected through mandated reporting by hospitals, ambulatory surgical treatment centers, non-hospital affiliated radiation therapy treatment centers and independent pathology labs and through the voluntary exchange of cancer patient data with central registries in other states. Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes Reporting System (APORS) The Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes Reporting System (APORS) collects information on Illinois infants born with birth defects or other abnormal conditions. The purpose of APORS is to conduct surveillance on birth defects, to guide public health policy in the reduction of adverse pregnancy outcomes, and to identify and refer children who require special services to correct and prevent developmental problems and other disabling conditions. Occupational Disease Registry (ODR) The Occupational Disease Registry (ODR) has several components: the Adult Blood Lead Registry (ABLR), Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI) and Surveillance of Occupational Diseases and Injuries (SODI). In October 1998, the Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses (SOII) was implemented to collect information on non-fatal occupational injuries and illnesses. Additionally, the Division of Epidemiologic Studies responds to inquiries about perceived cancer clusters by providing information and educational materials about the diseases of cancer. The division also conducts epidemiologic research projects, which are published in its Epidemiologic Report Series and scientific peer-reviewed journals.
