Download PDF

Darien’s youth, not worried about having sex, are getting sexually transmitted diseases at the fastest rate in memory, making STD’s the town’s largest reported health problem. Meanwhile, the fastest growing public health problem in Darien is opioid use. Those were some of the findings from a health assessment Darien officials recently conducted in town and presented as part of a three-part series of public forums on health problems Darien residents should be watching out for. Opioid use was discussed on each of the past three Thursdays at the meetings in Darien Library, along with substance abuse in general, stress and other health problems that might be prevented if individual town residents take them seriously enough before the problems get too big. “Our health challenges are real, and many of us have been touched by what we’re here to discuss this evening,” First Selectman Jayme Stevenson said at the first meeting.

Darien Health Department Starts Letter Grades for Food Service Inspections

Download PDF

Darien Health Department has made some changes to the way it informs the public about the latest restaurant inspections at each food service location in town: New inspection certificates show A-B-C letter grades that customers can see at a glance. Also, customers with smartphones can use them to scan the “QR” code on the certificate to go to the department’s inspections website to get inspection details. (Here’s an explanation — from the How to Geek website — of QR codes and how to use them — you’ll need to get an app for your phone, and they have a couple of recommendations.)
