Chatham-Kent Health Team looking for public feedback

CHATHAM-KENT — The Chatham-Kent Ontario Health Team (CKOHT) is a collaboration of partners committed to co-designing a local health care system with improved access to care that is easier to navigate for everyone.

CKOHT’s Vision is: Achieving the Best Health and Wellbeing Together.

The CKOHT is seeking feedback from the general public, including patients, families and caregivers in Chatham-Kent though a health care survey.

The survey asks questions about resident’s health, their health care experiences in Chatham-Kent, as well as their preferences on how to access and receive health care.

This information will be shared with organizations in Chatham-Kent to ensure alignment when planning local health care strategies.

The survey data will also inform the development of CK- OHT’s three year Strategic Plan (2021-2024).

“Now is a good time to understand the changing needs of health care for residents of Chatham-Kent,” said CK- OHT Executive Transformation Lead, Melissa Sharpe-Harrigan. “It is of utmost importance to have public input into defining health care design at the local level.”

The survey is open to complete for residents of Chatham-Kent from Friday May 14 to Friday May 28 at 4:30 pm.

The survey is voluntary, anonymous and confidential. Survey results will be shared across the health system in Chatham-Kent. After completing the survey, respondents will be entered into a draw to win a $50 grocery store gift card.
