The Cass County Health System is seeking the public’s input on how CCHS is meeting the healthcare needs of residents in southwest Iowa. Three thousand surveys are being mailed to a random sample of residents throughout Cass County. Residents can complete the paper survey and return it in the enclosed, postage paid envelope, or follow the instructions and complete the survey online. Surveys must be completed and returned by Friday, November 13, 2015. The survey will take no more than 10-15 minutes to complete.

Survey responses are completely confidential. Essman/Research, an independent marketing research firm in Des Moines, has been retained by CCHS to process the survey results and provide CCHS with an Executive Summary Report.

CCHS CEO Todd Hudspeth says “We appreciate Cass County residents taking time to share their thoughts on healthcare services in general and about the services offered at Cass County Health System.” Hudspeth says “We will utilize this feedback as we develop a strategic plan to guide our progress over the next several years.”

Residents who have any questions about the survey may contact the CCHS Public Relations Department at 712-243-7408 or Essman/Research at 515-282-7145.
