Partnering with Our Communities
Making our communities stronger and healthier is at the core of everything we do at Sanford Health. As the nation’s premier rural health system, we’re committed to delivering world-class health care no matter where you live.
Our care extends beyond our medical centers and clinics. We’re active in the communities we serve and invest substantial resources to drive more opportunities and better health for all.
Identifying community needs
Every three years, Sanford Health conducts the Community Health Needs Assessment to learn more about the health and well-being of everyone we serve. The Community Health Needs Assessment allows us to identify significant unmet health needs and prioritize local partnerships and initiatives.
Your participation in the Community Health Needs Assessment helps improve care in your community. Please complete the survey when it opens in October 2023.
For a list of past survey results and implementation strategies, please visit the Community Health Needs Assessment page.
Request funding
We thank you for your continued service to the community.
Every community is unique, so we consider local conditions for each funding request. We have established criteria to guide these decisions.
