For a health department not to follow cdc guidelines when we are in the middle of the global pandemic is not only unprofessional but dangerous for the people that are trying to stay safe and follow their rules

Absolutely the most unprofessional heath facility I’ve ever dealt with! Their knowledge on current COVID pandemic procedures and their ability to execute them correctly is non existent !!!! Thought the health department was funded to help keep our communities healthy and safe ?! Why is the Mena Ar facility not held to at least some minimum standard????
