Geary Community Hospital and Live Well Geary County are working together to provide this community wide survey. The hospital is 
conducting a Community Health Needs Assessment and Live Well Geary County is conducting a survey to gather your understandings about opportunities for physical activity, healthy eating, and tobacco
cessation in your community. This survey will also help better
understand the health needs of our community. The information
gathered will ensure that our community have healthy options to
choose from and help determine the future Pathways to a Healthy
Kansas Initiatives.

Your responses will be compiled with other responses and will
never directly identify your individual response. We are gathering
some demographic information to ensure that we have gathered
feedback from a broad representation of individuals in the
community, but this will not be shared outside the project team. You
can choose to skip questions that you don’t feel comfortable
answering and you can stop at any time.

We thank you for your participation!
