Township Health Department Posts New Survey

By Cliff Moore

The Montgomery Township Health Department, which not only serves Montgomery, but by interlocal agreement Rocky Hill, Hopewell, and Pennington, has posted an online survey to find out what residents think about the services offered. They hope the answers provided will help achieve a national health department accreditation in 2018.

Among the questions on the survey, they ask if staff appear professional and if concerns are addressed by the Department. They also want to get a sense of what sort of services residents have received in the past, such as flu shots, child health care clinics, blood pressure screening, septic tank inspections, animal control, and even the issuing of marriage/birth/death certificates.

Naturally, they’d like to know the best way to inform residents of services offered, hence the online survey. To participate in the survey, visit the Health Department website, www.twp.montgomery.nj.us/departments/health.
