What is the JSNA?

The Bradford District Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) provides information on the current and health and wellbeing needs of people in Bradford District and acts as a ‘’living document’’, meaning that updates and new contributions can be made at any time. 

How to use the JSNA?

The JSNA is split into a number of sections which contain useful reports, resources, needs assessments and intelligence which can be used in a variety of ways, including supporting commissioning decisions, for research purposes and for any funding bids. The JSNA site contains a plethora of information which has been provided in various formats and thus they have been grouped into 5 macro sections which are accessible via clickable tiles below with the following headings:

Our population - this section covers useful demographic information about the district, including information taken from the 2021 census and summarises  the overall population of the district.

Bradford District Public Health - any relevant locally produced Public Health resources can be found here.  These include needs assessments, intelligence bulletins, resource packs on different Public Health topics and other reports produced by the Public Health Department in Bradford District.

Health Inequalities in Bradford District - this section outlines what are health inequalities, why we need to take action to reduce inequalities, different types of inequalities and what are we doing locally.

Locality profiles - profiles on any sub district (i.e. Area Committees, wards and Community Partnerships) data / intelligence.

Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment - The Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment (PNA) is a document that outlines services and ensures that pharmaceutical services across Bradford District both meet the needs of the population and that they are in the correct locations to support the residents of the district. This section provides access to the current and previous pharmaceutical needs assessments.
