Havering JSNA
Havering’s Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA)
The Havering Joint Strategic Needs Assessments (JSNA) is an assessment of the current and future health and social care needs of the local community. Such needs could be met by the Local Authority, Primary Care Networks (PCNs), the NHS boards and other local partners. JSNAs are produced by Health and wellbeing boards and are unique to each local area.
The Havering JSNA provides a single, agreed view of priorities at place level and provide crucial insight to shape the Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy (JHWS) of the borough. Health and care partners must have regard to the JSNA and JHWS. Other related reports include the pharmaceutical needs assessment and comprehensive needs assessment.
The Havering JSNA structure is consistent with the Population Health Management approach, describing the factors shaping health outcomes for the local population in terms of the ‘four pillars of population health’, namely; The Wider Determinants of Health, Behaviours & Lifestyles, The Places & Communities in Which We Live and Integrated Health & Social Care. The JSNA executive summary, infographics summary, full report, summary recommendations and individual chapters (pillars) can be accessed and downloaded via links below.
