What is a Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA)? The Health and Social Care Act of 2012 places a duty on Health and Wellbeing Boards to produce a Joint Strategic Needs Assessment. In April 2018, the Coventry Health and Wellbeing Board authorised a move towards a place-based approach to the JSNA, with the production of a citywide JSNA analytical profile, plus JSNA analytical profiles for each of the city’s eight Family Hub reach areas.
Health is more than the healthcare system: it is not exclusively NHS hospitals, doctors or nurses. Importantly, health is about people’s lives. People’s and communities' health is determined by their economic and social circumstances for example:
Their communities; including whether they have access to a good network of family and friends
Their prospects; including whether they have access to good jobs and education
Their environment; including whether they live in a good neighbourhood with access to green spaces.
These social circumstances determine people’s health and wellbeing, and therefore, are known as Social Determinants of Health.
These JSNAs have brought together evidence about the health and wellbeing of Coventry residents by area, assisting Health & Care Leaders understand and work together to improve the health and wellbeing of Coventry residents within that locality or within the city as a whole.
