Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA)
Dudley Health and Social Care Community produced an initial Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) in March 2007. This was used in our engagement with Dudley people to support the development of our Joint Commissioning Strategy which will be published in 2008. Further Government Guidance was given in December 2007 about the production of a JSNA and during 2008/09, we will review our document to ensure that it is compliant with this Guidance and meets our purposes in Dudley. Please see related documents below for further information.
