Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA)

The JSNA provides a description of the current and future health, social care and wellbeing needs of the local population, and does so by collating a variety of evidence, including information from existing in-depth needs assessments; health and social care data and local views and experiences. The JSNA is used to identify local health and wellbeing issues and inform the commissioning and delivery of local services.

Most of the JSNA programme has been put on hold since April 2020 due do to the Public Health team focus on the Covid pandemic.

Below you will find the various sections of the JSNA summary. If you require more information, or have feedback about the JSNA, please contact kate.gilchrist@brighton-hove.gov.uk.
