Strategic Planning – Have Your Say!
4/26/2007 12:00:00 AM
A new website survey launched today is just one way that patients, families and the community can have input into the future direction of Soldiers’ Memorial Hospital. The hospital is developing its strategic plan for the next three years and everyone is encouraged to ‘Have Your Say’.
“We have numerous initiatives and group sessions within the hospital to give staff, physicians, and volunteers the opportunity to have their say about our future direction,” says Josephine Martensson-Hemsted, Chair of the Board of Directors. “We also want to hear the good ideas from our community.”
By logging on to www.OSMHhaveyoursay.ca, residents can fill in a short on-line survey. Surveys can also be picked up or dropped off in the main hospital lobby. In addition, comments can be emailed directly to haveyoursay@sympatico.ca.
“This is an exciting and interesting time for hospitals in Ontario with the introduction of the Local Health Integration Networks and the on-going challenge of meeting the health needs of our aging and growing population,” says President and CEO Bernie D. Schmidt. “It is vitally important that we hear from the community about the services being provided to them.”
All input, surveys and comments gathered over the next several months will help to form a new strategic plan to be finalized during the summer.
