Berlin, Md.
– Atlantic General Hospital and Health System has secured the assistance
of market research firm, RKM, Inc. to conduct a public perception survey
during the month of November.
Through this survey, area residents will have the opportunity to voice
their opinions about local health care needs, concerns and strengths.
The phone survey will be conducted with approximately 600 households.
Households will be randomly selected to participate to most accurately
represent public opinion in the region. All responses to the survey will
be confidential.
Residents selected for the survey are encouraged to take the time to respond
to the survey. Results will only be representative if there is a high
rate of participation. This survey will not try to sell anything to those
who participate. Every comment, suggestion, and opinion is valued.
This feedback helps the hospital better plan to meet its community members’
healthcare needs in their future. Atlantic General conducts the survey
every three to four years to gauge the success of ongoing efforts to provide
high quality care and access to the services most needed in the area.
