How are you, really? Community invited to share insights on health experiences | ¿Como estas realmente? La Comunidad esta invitada a compartir ideas sobre experiencias de salud 

- March 18, 2024

Metro Region hospitals, health departments, and other non-profit agencies have asked Professional Research Consultants (PRC) to conduct a survey in our community beginning now through May 31, 2024.  

This project is led by All Care Health Center, Charles Drew Health Center, CHI Health, Douglas County Health Department, Nebraska Medicine, Methodist Health System, OneWorld Community Health Center, Pottawattamie County Health Department, Sarpy/Cass Health Department, and The Wellbeing Partners, with the support of Professional Research Consultants. 

Community members living in Pottawattamie County in Iowa or Cass, Douglas, and Sarpy counties in Nebraska are invited to participate in the 2024 Community Health Needs Assessment.  

This assessment is a survey about things people in our community do which may affect their health. It helps us better understand the health needs and challenges in our region so we can work together to address them.  

By participating in this assessment, community members contribute to shaping the future of health initiatives in the Metro Region. 

There are two ways to participate and make your voice heard: Phone survey and online survey. Both are available in English and Spanish. 

Online survey: 

  • The survey is now available at prcsurvey.com/begin/MetroOmaha2024
  • IMPORTANT: Each respondent must take the survey by entering with the exact URL noted above.  You cannot copy and share the link from your web browser once a “survey session” has started and a unique session ID is assigned — this will result in an “expired” notice.
  • The online survey will take 25 minutes to complete. 
  • Survey is available in both English and Spanish using the same URL/link. 

Phone survey:  

  • PRC is conducting phone surveys to a randomized sample of community members.
  • The survey will take approximately 20 minutes to complete.  

You only need to take the survey once; if you have completed it via phone or online, do not take it again. This helps ensure we have accurate results.  

Aja Anderson, CEO of The Wellbeing Partners, said “Collaboration drives community health improvement. Through completion of the survey, community members can inform and impact community health and health care delivery locally”.  

Call to action:  

  • Take the 2024 CHA survey yourself by May 31 at prcsurvey.com/begin/MetroOmaha2024
  • Encourage your friends, family, clients, networks, etc. to participate in the CHA survey.
