        <ExplanationTxt>Part V, Section B, Line 5: The assessment was achieved through the co-leadership of the director of the McPherson County Health Department along with input from other county hospitals, Lindsborg Community Hospital and Mercy Hospital in Moundridge. The McPherson County CHNA process included gathering opinions from the public and area sources through the use of a survey and quantitative data from secondary sources. A survey instrument comprised of 36 questions was developed by the leadership of the participating hospitals and the public health department. The electronic survey was made available throughout the county through various means including media, social media, hospital websites, and was publicized through said sources as well as newspaper and radio. A focus group was formed to provide input regarding the results of the survey. Included in the focus group were individuals representing health care, law enforcement, family advocacy, indigent populations, mental health, public health, civic leadership, education, religion, and senior services, fitness, and Chamber of Commerce, among others. A total of 380 survey responses were received with each community in the county represented in the respondent group.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>Part V, Section B, Line 11: The annual update below pertains to the CHNA and implementation strategy completed for the 2015 tax year (fiscal year ended 06/30/2016), which is the third annual update for the three-year cycle. Activities with the Kansas State University Extension Office: The hospital had hoped to partner with the local Kansas State University Extension Office in a couple of initiatives in 2019. However, the lead sponsor organization, the Kansas State University Extension office, did not include McPherson Hospital in their plans to help promote and administer the Walk Kansas. Further, the extension office did not hold the planned Dining with Diabetes events due to low participation. The hospital continues to reach out and offer financial and personnel resources as available to assist with these types of events with this local organization. Lunch and Learn Events: The hospital sponsored two education events free to the public in 2019 to address topics ranging from general health and wellness to specific disease prevention. The events, named "DocTalks," provide lectures and dialogue between health providers and the general public. The lecture topics this year included weight loss and dietary tips for building immunity to disease as well as women's health issues including the importance of regular screenings for cancer and other diseases. Total resource allocation for these two events totaled approximately $800 and reached over 100 participants. Those in attendance received information to help them make good decisions regarding maintaining a healthy diet, the importance of foods in building immunity and women's disease prevention.Speaker's Bureau: The hospital staff presents lectures in the community on a variety of health topics, but due to the audiences who invited the lectures, the topics identified in the CHNA were not necessarily related specifically to the needs assessment. The DocTalks mentioned previously are able to be targeted to the needs assessment results. The hospital will continue to make staff available as feasible for public information sharing as needed and appropriate.Radio show: The hospital contracts with the local radio station to air a monthly talk show hosted by the chief operating officer who is also director of the pharmacy and the former hospital general surgeon. The format is not a call-in show, but rather, the content is determined by the hosts who discuss subjects such as nutrition and weight control, heart health, diabetes, and general health concerns. Guests are sometimes utilized to bring special emphasis and expertise to the topic. The information-only half-hour show receives positive feedback from listenership. The actual number of listeners is unknown since the radio station does not track such statistics. The hospital spends nearly $2,000 annually to air this educational program which impacts the community by offering provider-based perspectives on important health topics.Theraband Classes: These free classes for the public are held weekly and are targeted for senior citizens, reaching approximately ten or more individuals per session. Resources allocated are staff time and materials totaling approximately $1,396 annually. These classes provide attendees an opportunity to stretch, receive professional consultation on fitness and wellness, and maintain general fitness to extend their lives.Promote healthy meals: Due to limited financial and personnel resources in the fiscal year, this initiative will be reconsidered for the future. Disease Awareness: For years, the hospital has communicated national health awareness dates through the hospital-produced newsletter which is available to patients, families, guests and staff. The hospital is also a platinum sponsor ($1,000 annually) for the local Relay for Life event each year for the American Cancer Society, and a financial supporter ($250 annually) of a local independent group whose focus is on providing assistance to women and children who are fighting cancer and creating cancer awareness and education. The hospital also participates in events associated with these groups to distribute information and address questions. These initiatives provide resources and leadership to raise awareness and encourage healthy lifestyles.Expert speaker on relevant topic: Because of continuing fiscal year financial and operational challenges, this initiative will be considered in the future. Local college student initiative: Due to prior-mentioned limited resources, the hospital was not able to develop this strategy. Further, the colleges have their own strategies for integrating students into the community which may or may not include education of health offerings or education. The hospital is discussing a partnership to be launched in 2020 with one of the local colleges to assist with a new degree program in which students will be observing hospital staff in a variety of occupations. This will increase their awareness of the importance of rural health care and the positive impacts of health professions.We have seen success in the percent of those with cancer in the Medicare population in McPherson County. The Centers of Medicare and Medicaid services reports that as of May 2019, the percent of adults in the Medicare population with cancer has remained stable and istrending downward. Comparatively, many specific types of cancer are trending downward in the county including colorectal, female breast, lung and male prostate.Though mental health issues were not specifically addressed as a strategy in 2016, it was an area that was identified through the survey as being one of the most important health problems in the community. As such, the hospital has since begun initiatives to increase awareness of this issue and has engaged in a task force along with mental health providers, law enforcement and other key partners in the community to develop strategies for cooperative care of patients and addressing their unique needs. Meeting quarterly, this task force is working to expand their scope in addressing broader mental health issues in the community in the coming years. They are targeting events in the public to build education and awareness and generate discussion as a community.The latest data on obesity shows the percent of adults who are obese in McPherson County is trending downward since 2015, according to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE). The latest data from 2017 shows this percentage down to 24.5 from 32.3 in 2015. This is likely due to increased awareness of factors impacting weight gain and overall health. As a result, McPherson County has met the HP 2020 goal in this area. HP 2020 is a comprehensive set of key disease prevention and health promotion objectives. Further, the age-adjusted death rate due to heart attack has been trending downward consistently since 2012. This can be partly attributed to healthier lifestyles but also to more advanced treatments and processes at the local hospital level. The incidences of heart failure have also steadily declined since 2012 while the levels of hypertension have remained stable.Drug abuse is another area that was identified through the Community Health Needs Assessment as a concern. McPherson County has seen positive results in bringing awareness to these challenges evidenced by meeting Health People 2020 progress goals in the percent of adults who are binge drinkers and in percent of adults who smoke cigarettes, according to the KDHE.</ExplanationTxt>
