PUBLIC HEALTH : Mandatory Health Programs and Services Guidelines and Ontario Public Health Standards
The purpose of the Mandatory Health Programs and Services Guidelines is to set out the minimum requirements for fundamental public health programs and services targeted at prevention of disease, health promotion and health protection. The MHPSG reflect broad aspirations for the health of all Ontarians and the important role of boards of health in providing and/or ensuring relevant programs and services.
The MHPSG are published by the Minister of Health and Long-Term Care, pursuant to Section 7 of the Health Protection and Promotion Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. H.7. When finalized, the Ontario Public Health Standards will be published as the Guidelines for the provision of Mandatory Health Programs and Services by the Minister of Health and Long-Term Care.
