Town Hall on Health Set for March 16th

The public is invited to attend a Town Hall meeting to discuss experiences and share updates on healthcare delivery within Poweshiek County. The town hall meeting will be Wednesday, March 16th at 11:30 a.m., beginning with a free light lunch at the Elks Lodge, 720 3rd Ave., Grinnell.

The goal of the Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) is to update and report progress in addressing community health needs cited in the 2013 CHNA report and to collect up-to-date community health perceptions in 2016.

 Grinnell Regional Medical Center and Grinnell Regional Public Health have collected survey results from more than 200 residents. The deadline is March 1, 2016 for the survey. To complete the survey, go to http://bit.ly/2016CHNASurvey.

“We hope that the community and health and human services professionals will take advantage of this opportunity to provide input into the future of healthcare delivery in our county,” says Todd Linden, GRMC President and CEO.

VVV Consultants LLC has been retained to conduct this county-wide research. Vince Vandehaar, MBA, Principal Consultant, will compile the survey results and facilitate the Town Hall meeting. The purpose is to look at healthcare services, delivery and opportunities for improvement. If you have any questions about CHNA activities, please call 913-924-2327.
