Description
The community health needs assessment (CHNA) process offers hospitals a valuable opportunity to strengthen connections with the communities they serve. Conducted every three years, CHNAs create a structured process for hospitals to partner meaningfully with community stakeholders. Similarly, organizations like federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) and accredited public health departments also perform routine community health assessments — creating a powerful opportunity for collaboration and alignment.
In this webinar, participants will hear from two hospital-public health department partnerships that have successfully implemented collaborative CHNAs.
Dignity Health St. Joseph’s and the Maricopa County Department of Public Health will share practical tools for developing a framework to prioritize community health needs.
Ochsner Health, in partnership with the Louisiana Public Health Institute and United Way of Acadiana, will present a scalable CHNA model that blends rigorous data analysis with meaningful community engagement. Join us to explore replicable strategies, tools and real-world examples that can help health care organizations and cross-sector collaborations identify and act on priority community health needs.
AHA’s Care Delivery Transformation Framework supports hospitals in reimagining how care is delivered to better meet the needs of patients and communities. This webinar series highlights innovative strategies that are shaping the future of care delivery. Each session will focus on one of the framework’s three core areas: clinical settings, community settings and linking care to community.
