2023 COMMUNITY HEALTH SURVEY BEGINS WEDNESDAY
Adult residents of Jefferson, Lewis, and St. Lawrence counties encouragedto share thoughts regarding local healthcare
Watertown, NY,
May 22, 2023 ----- The Fort Drum Regional Health Planning
Organization (FDRHPO), in partnership with the North Country Health Compass
Partners, will be reaching out to community members for its 2023 Community
Health Survey beginning this Wednesday, May 24, 2023.
Completed on an
annual basis, the survey asks local adults about their thoughts and
experiences with healthcare. Responses are kept anonymous and are used to
assess the effectiveness of local programs, identify specific health needs
in the community, and create plans to address these needs.
The telephone
portion of the survey will be completed within one week using phone numbers
that have been randomly selected within Jefferson, Lewis, and St. Lawrence
counties. It also will be emailed to a number of
our region’s residents.
FDRHPO's goal is
to have at least 1,500 adults complete the survey -- roughly 500 from each
county. Findings are expected to be released early this Fall.
For more
