Ozarks Healthcare launches community brand assessment

Published 5:00 pm Wednesday, November 4, 2026

Ozarks Healthcare’s 2026 Community Brand Assessment is officially underway, and residents across the region are invited to share their feedback.

The assessment aims to help the health system understand community perceptions of its reputation and services. Health system officials say the data will guide future strategic priorities and identify opportunities to better meet local health care needs.

Ozarks Healthcare is partnering with VVV Consultants, an Olathe, Kan.-based health care research and consulting firm, to conduct the survey. All responses will be kept confidential.

“Our community’s feedback is essential to helping us understand what we’re doing well and where we have opportunities to grow,” said Terence Farrell, president and CEO of Ozarks Healthcare. “As we look toward the future, we want to ensure our priorities reflect the needs and expectations of the people we serve.”

Residents can participate through Dec. 4, in four ways:

1. Completing and returning a mailed paper survey using the provided postage-paid envelope.
2. Scanning the QR code on a mailed survey postcard.
3. Visiting www.ozarkshealthcare.com/about-us/for-community.
4. Following the survey link on the Ozarks Healthcare Facebook page.

Participants can also complete a separate entry form for a chance to win one of 11 gift cards, including one $300 prize, four $100 prizes and six $50 prizes. Winners will be drawn on Dec. 11.
