Take the Pulse on the Community Survey!
What Is “Pulse on the Community”? “Pulse on the Community” is a Community Needs Assessment (CNA) led by Ouray County Emergency Medical Services (OCEMS). A Community Needs Assessment is a structured way to listen to the community. It helps us understand:
- How people access care
- What services are working well
- What may be missing
- What barriers people face
- What residents would like to see improved
This project is focused on EMS services and Mobile Integrated Healthcare (MIH) — programs that help people stay healthy and supported outside of emergency situations.
Why Are We Doing This?
Ouray County is a unique rural community. Access to healthcare, distance to hospitals, aging in place, and seasonal population changes all affect how emergency services are used.
We are conducting this assessment to:
- Improve EMS services
- Identify gaps in care
- Support aging residents
- Understand community beliefs and experiences
- Plan responsibly for the future
Your input helps us make informed, data-driven decisions that benefit the entire community.
