The Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) identifies "the big picture" issues around health and well being for people in Barnsley. It pulls together into one place all the best available information regarding assessment of the current and future health and well-being needs of the Barnsley population.
The concept of a JSNA has been introduced in the recent Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Bill. It is an important part of the new duty to collaborate for local authorities and primary care trusts (PCTs). Whilst recognising the important thrust of Government policy towards personalised services and care, the JSNA is a tool to identify groups whose needs are not being met and who are experiencing poor outcomes.
Responsibility for producing the JSNA lies with the Director of Public Health, Director of Adult Social Services and Director of Children, Young People and Families.
Barnsley has produced a JSNA Technical Report for the following years:
