Since 2008, South Peninsula Hospital has been working together with other local organizations, agencies and community members within the MAPP coalition to improve our community’s health. Every three years, we take a snapshot of the community’s health perceptions to inform existing and new hospital and community efforts. Please take a few minutes to take the survey online here. Responses are anonymous, and you will be entered in to win a gift card to local businesses! For more information, including past Community Health Needs Assessments, visit this page.
