The main objective of the Environmental Health Division is to promote and protect public health through the enforcement of local and state public health and environmental health laws, rules and regulations. As part of that mission, the Division of Environmental Health inspects establishments such as restaurants (and other food service establishments), licensed child care centers, lodging establishments and institutions (such as schools, hospitals and rest homes).
In our on-going efforts to better serve the Citizens of Durham County, the Division of Environmental Health is transitioning to an improved website for establishment inspection scores to help you make informed choices! This new site provides access to more complete data, including specific violations and inspection scores. The new website also provides information on the rules governing inspection scores for the various establishments under inspection.
The new website can be accessed via the new North Carolina Public Health Inspections website:

Environmental Health Specialists (EHS) who enforce these rules and regulations are required to be authorized by the North Carolina Division of Environmental Health and registered by the North Carolina State Board of Sanitarian Examiners. For more information, please feel free to contact the Environmental Health Division at (919) 560-7800 or via email at health@durhamcountync.gov.
