Forbes Hall Health Services: Our Health, Our Community Survey

Forbes Hall Health Services Group is joining with Our Cowichan Communities Health Network sharing this survey to ensure that our Thetis community is included. Please take the time to fill out the survey, our target is for a minimum of 100 responses over a broad age range, full-time and part-time residents are encouraged to participate.

Spread the word! Island Health and Our Cowichan Communities Health Network have launched the Our Health, Our Community survey. Complete the survey today.

Our Cowichan Communities Health Network, in partnership with Island Health, is elated to announce that the much-anticipated Our Health, Our Community online survey is live and ready for public participation. 

Click here to take the survey: https://redcap.viha.ca/redcap/surveys/?s=99ATWT4N7FXDYXA8

The goal of this survey is to capture local data on the health and well-being of Cowichan Valley residents to help shape regional programs, services, and policies. Survey participants will be asked about their overall health and life in the Cowichan Valley (including Thetis Island), and for feedback on their access to local health and community services.

A high level of participation will help generate the quality data our region requires to respond to demographic shifts and changing health and community needs.

Thanks for your participation,
