I'm not sure if this is the letter to which you refer. Good luck.

Hello,

In Oklahoma we have found that less is more. If we don’t explain the need they become curious and are more likely to call.

The attached letter  is fillable and we leave enough room at the top for the specific county letterhead. We have these in English, Spanish and Marshallese.

Very simple but has been most effective for us.

Interested to hear what works for everyone else.

Have a great day,

Amy Hill, RN
