Lead Care
Lead care involves managing and minimizing exposure to lead, a toxic metal that can harm health, especially for children and pregnant women. It includes identifying sources of lead contamination, like old paint or contaminated soil, and removing or controlling these risks. Proper lead care also involves screenings, safe lead removal procedures, and ongoing monitoring to prevent lead poisoning. The goal is to protect health through proactive assessment, safe practices, and education, ensuring environments are safe and reducing the risk of lead-related health issues.
