“We want to know where people look for health information and what types of information they are seeking so we can better serve them,” Kailee Olson, BCHD communications coordinator said through a news release.
The survey is part of an assessment being conducted by the consultant firm, Rede Group, to evaluate the health department’s previous and existing communications. The assessment will help inform a multi-year strategic communications plan to improve how the department communicates with internal staff, community partners and members of the public.
The survey takes about 15 minutes to complete and the last day to respond is March 15. At the end of the survey, participants can choose to enter a drawing to win one of six $50 gift cards as an appreciation for their time.
The survey is available online via SurveyMonkey in both English and Spanish. People who would like the survey in another language or who would like printed copies of the survey should contact healthdeptcommunications@bentoncountyor.gov.
