The survey items cover a total of 17 areas and 145 questions, including health behaviors such as smoking, drinking, physical activity, and dietary habits; chronic disease morbidity based on early recognition of symptoms of hypertension, diabetes, stroke, and myocardial infarction; medical institution usage; accidents and poisoning; activity limitations; and quality of life.

Four surveyors who have completed training on the Community Health Survey will visit the selected sample households in person and conduct one-on-one interviews. The questionnaire will be administered using electronic survey forms on tablet PCs.

Previously, Sacheon Public Health Center signed a business agreement with the Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation of Gyeongsang National University to ensure accurate survey implementation.
