FISHERSVILLE, Virginia–Augusta Health is currently conducting its Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA).  All hospitals are required by federal regulation to conduct a CHNA at least once every three years. 

The assessment includes a phone survey of the community, so residents may receive a phone call from Augusta Health’s survey firm, PRC Custom Research.  The phone survey will be conducted through May. 

Community residents can also take the survey online through the community link at:

The community link will be active until the end of March.

“The Community Health Needs Assessment is a valuable tool to help Augusta Health identify the top health needs in the community,” says Krystal Moyers, Administrative Director of Community Outreach and Community Partnerships for Augusta Health.  “The survey results provide data that allow Augusta Health’s Community Outreach team to implement important programs in the community to address the needs that are identified.  This ultimately improves the health of the community, so please take a few minutes to complete the survey if you are called, or to access it online.”
