Heywood Healthcare’s Athol and Heywood Hospitals and UMass Memorial Health Alliance Clinton Hospital are joining forces with the Montachusett Regional Planning Commission (MRPC) to conduct their triennial Community Health Needs Assessments (CHNA). Comprehensive community health assessments are completed every three years to inform and drive strategies to address each health care group’s Community Health Improvement Plans (CHIP). Completing their respective health assessments together will help both systems align their efforts to address the critical health care needs of the region.
Particularly, in the wake of COVID-19, the CHNA will be a valuable tool to identify new challenges resulting from the pandemic, stated Mary Giannetti, Director of Resource Development for Heywood Healthcare.
