What is the minimum age requirement to obtain a Southern Nevada Health Card?

The minimum age requirement to obtain a Southern Nevada Health Card is 14 years old. This age restriction is put in place to ensure that individuals are mature enough to understand and comply with health and safety regulations related to food service and handling. Obtaining a health card is an important step for those looking to work in the food industry, as it demonstrates that the individual has received appropriate training in food safety and hygiene practices, which are critical in protecting public health. While some other age options may seem reasonable, they do not meet the established regulatory standards set by the Southern Nevada Health District.
