SUMMARY

The CCLHD, HNECC PHN and CCRI have initiated the JSNA to improve the understanding of the needs of the Central Coast population.

The JSNA will build on existing knowledge about the region’s population health needs and health services. The JSNA will further explore the region’s non-health needs arising from the wider social determinants of health. The JSNA will also provide a deeper understanding of the region’s system partnerships.

The JSNA will allow the CCLHD, HNECC PHN and CCRI to understand the characteristics of the Central Coast population at a local level and define a set of health neighbourhoods. This understanding will inform the planning and implementation of future place-based services and interventions on the Central Coast.

OUTPUTS

A report summarising the findings of the quantitative and qualitative data collection, including a thematic analysis of secondary research findings as well as primary stakeholder interview, surveys and focus groups, will be published here when available.
