Research Program

Survey Mailed to In-Home Service Clients
The Otsego County Commission on Aging (OCCOA) Research Department mailed out a survey to its 171 In-Home Service clients on Saturday, July 10, 2010.  As of Friday, July 23, 2010, the official survey cutoff date, 111 surveys were returned.  Since that date, and additional 12 surveys have been returned for a total response from 123 clients (72 percent response rate)! 

$25 Gift Card Drawing Winners Announced!
Participating clients had the opportunity to enter a drawing for a $25 gift card from the store of their choice (Glen's Markets, Wal-Mart, or Meijer).  The drawing for the gift card took place on Tuesday, July 27th from the 87 entry cards that were returned with the surveys.  The OCCOA Research Department is pleased to announce that the winner was Shirley Allen of Gaylord.  She selected a gift card from Meijer.

Thank you for your Participation!
On behalf of the Otesgo County Commission on Aging, the Research Department would like to thank the 123 clients who took the time to complete and return their surveys.  Anyone wishing to still complete and return their survey may do so until Friday, August 6, 2010.  All together, your input will be very helpful in ensuring that the OCCOA In-Home Service Program will be able to offer the best possible support to its clients.

 The critical responsibility for the generation you're in is to help provide the shoulders, the direction, and the support for those generations who come behind.
