Every three years OSF HealthCare is required to conduct a Community Health Needs Assessment survey to put together a plan to meet the community needs informs Diabetes Education Coordinator Tina Canada:
“Once those surveys are tabulated, then it kind of shows us what the community health needs are here in Warren County. The answers to those survey questions are going to be how we will focus our community education and looking at what we need to have people have better access to healthcare here in Warren County. We really want people to have that access and to feel that they have that access. We don’t want them to feel like there is a reason they can’t come. We want to know if you feel you can’t, what those reasons are; cost, do you feel like there is a bias, what is it that keeps you from getting healthcare. It may be transportation and it may be lack of funds, but it may be something else and we can’t work on those things if we don’t know what they are.”
Hard copies of the survey can be picked up and completed at Strom Center, Jamieson Community Center, or the Warren County Public Library until October 1st. The survey can also be completed online here:
