Assessment Overview Imagine you are completing an internship at an organization in a rural community that has been tasked with communicating a new method of healthcare delivery that will best meet the needs of the individuals in that area. Currently, in this rural community, seeking medical care requires individuals to travel to a clinic that is 60 minutes away. As a result, individuals are not keeping up with preventative care and only seek care after they become so ill that they need assistance. You are brainstorming ways to improve the overall health of this community, and some various ideas that come to mind are having a mobile health unit or having Healthcare Providers (HCP) come to a location in the community at pre-determined times during the month. Healthcare Systems For Rural Communities Survey Discussion Paper You also realize that community members may not even think a change is necessary. You decide you would like community feedback as part of your assessment process to determine if members of this community would utilize a change in service methodology. The best method to acquire feedback within this community is to disseminate a survey.
