The Cabarrus Health Alliance is the public health authority for Cabarrus County. <br />2. Emergency situations can create a variety of public health problems. Depending on the <br />nature of the incident, problems may include the spread of communicable diseases, <br />contamination of food and water supplies, and widespread injuries. <br />3. The lack of medical assistance and the stress of the situation may cause an increase in <br />general health and behavioral health problems. <br />4. A well- coordinated health support network is essential during emergency situations. <br />5. Emergency response operations may require an expansion of services provided by the <br />Cabarrus Health Alliance and supporting agencies. <br />6. Health services agencies must be prepared to meet an array of threats to public health. Of <br />particular concern are the hazards caused by the release of toxic or hazardous materials <br />and the resulting contamination of the air, water, or soil over a large area. <br />B.
