Take a Community Health Assessment Survey

Winneshiek County Public Health and Winneshiek Medical Center are jointly seeking community input on the health environment of northeast Iowa and southeast Minnesota through an online survey.

Called a Community Health Assessment, the survey is designed to gather information from the community to help guide/direct health planning activities.  With this data, communities can map out a course for health improvement by creating strategies to make positive and sustainable changes in their communities.

Winneshiek County Public Health Nurse Krista Vanden Brink says, “The survey process and results will allow us to deepen our partnership with the communities we serve through a greater understanding of the health issues they face.  Input from citizens is the most authentic way for us to understand the health environment in our area.”

The public is invited to complete the online survey March 14-31, 2022.  The link can be found on the Winneshiek Medical Center website homepage: www.winmedical.org, or the Winneshiek County Public Health website: www.winneshiekhealth.org.  The direct link is: https://bit.ly/health-survey-2022.

Survey questions should take about 10 minutes to complete.
