Overview

The Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) is an assessment of the current and future health and social care needs of the people of ¶®ÒõµÛ. It is the responsibility of the Health and Wellbeing Board and its purpose is to inform local organisations enabling them to plan services for the future.

¶®ÒõµÛ’s JSNA brings together a range of strategic overviews and detailed needs assessments with input from Council, NHS and partner agencies. We have grouped these into 4 themes:

  • Starting Well - maternity, children and young people
  • Living Well - working age adults
  • Ageing Well - older people
  • Local Priorities - Health and Wellbeing Board and STP

In addition, demographics and data relating to the health and wellbeing of the ¶®ÒõµÛ population can be found in our local areas profiles. The JSNA should not be seen as a “one off” document. It is ever growing and changing as new reports and assessments are added, which can be referenced together.
