Vidant Health seeks community input on Community Health Needs Assessment

Greenville, N.C. – May 4, 2021 – ECU Health is encouraging feedback from community members throughout eastern North Carolina on its current Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA). Vidant seeks feedback from our community every three years to complete these assessments. This feedback allows the health system to understand what community members see as the most important health issues affecting their communities. It provides the foundation for improving and promoting good health in our eastern North Carolina region.

Vidant encourages all community members age 15 and older to complete the CHNA survey and provide meaningful feedback on how Vidant can continue to improve health and well-being in eastern North Carolina. The survey takes approximately 10 minutes to complete and all responses are confidential. Your feedback helps ensure health care needs are met in the 29 counties Vidant serves. The survey is open through June 18.

The full CHNA process involves collection and analysis of a large range of data, including demographic, socioeconomic and health statistics, and most importantly, feedback from community members. The completed CHNA analysis and results serve as the basis for prioritizing methods to meet the community’s health needs in order to improve the health and well-being of eastern North Carolina.

The survey is in both English and Spanish and can be found at VidantHealth.com/CHNA.
