FOR SCHEDULING COVID VACCINES: Walk-in during regular business hours Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Policy on Social Media Comments:
The purpose of this page is to present matters of public interest from Ashland County Health Department (ACHD) for Ashland County; including its many residents, businesses, and visitors. Our main goal with social media is to disburse important health and wellness information to our community. We encourage you to submit your questions, comments, and concerns, but please note this is a moderated online discussion site and not a public forum. Once posted, ACHD reserves the right to delete these types of submissions:
• Vulgar language
• Personal attacks of any kind including bullying of ACHD and any of its employees and bullying of others who have commented.
• Comments or content that promotes, fosters, or perpetuates discrimination on the basis of race, creed, color, age, religion, gender, gender identity, gender presentation, marital status, sexual orientation, genetics, status with regard to public assistance, national origin, or physical or intellectual disability.
• Spam or links to other sites
• Clearly off topic
• Advocate illegal, dangerous, or violent activity
• Promote particular services, products, or political organizations
• Infringe on copyrights or trademarks
• Personally-identifiable medical information
• Information that may compromise the safety, security, or proceedings of individuals, public systems, or any criminal or civil investigations.
• Solicit business
• Posts or comments which contradict the modern evidence base of science as determined by the health department and other reputable resources such as the CDC and Ohio Department of Health. Repeated violations of the comment policy may cause the author to be blocked from ACHD’s social media profiles. We understand that social media is a 24/7 medium; however, our moderation capabilities are not. We may not see every inappropriate comment right away, and we are trusting in the maturity of our community to ignore personal attacks and negative speech or respond politely. Comments will be moderated as soon as possible by our staff. Please note that the comments expressed on this site do not reflect the opinions and position of ACHD or its employees. If you have any questions concerning this social media platform, please visit www.ashlandhealth.com and fill out the comment request form.
